Banking Lapwing

Freezing here in the UK after a very warm week, so wasn't out for long. I decided on going for some flight shots of Lapwings and these were really fast and difficult to keep in the frame whilst they displayed over the lake. Hope you like it and comments always appreciated.

7D, 500mm + 1.4X ISO800, 1/800, f8, processed in LR4, USM and cropped in PSE10.

Thanks

Hi Simon, NIce banking turn with the underwing exposed I do wish you had a better HA and the dividing line between the water and land did not intersect the bird.

Excellent flight shot. Wish you got hime just before he pasted you.

Magnificent flight shot showing very nice under-wing pattern.Nice light,colors and composition.

nice flight pose,good detail.thanks.

Thanks everyone for the comments and feedback. It is a shame about the background disecting the bird but I was just glad to get this shot with the way they were zipping around but I do see your point. Hopefully I'll go back soon and try for some better images.

thanks again.

Caught with a nice wing position and the background is well OOF. Would have liked the head angle to have been better but nice shot all the same Simon.

Thanks Nick. Appreciate the comments.
