Incoming kite

[arash_hazeghi]

Here is another of my fav. kite frames. The 600II continues to impress me in terms of AF tracking and sharpness, it's a killer flight combo with the MK4.




1D4 840mm f/5.6 1/3200sec ISO 500

you need to see the HD version here

Awesome frame Arash! The new 600 has really helped you with the Kites!

It is the raptor lens!

That HD version took my breath away. Way cool shot, Arash.

[Andrew Merwin]

A consummate image.

[Markus Jais]

Another great flight shot. I might darken right part of the BG a bit.
Wonderful light and colors.

A beautiful shot.Tack sharp- which is so hard to do on an incoming bird.
Light is lovely as is the BG. Agree on burning the RHS of BG a bit as the bright area tends to take the eye away from the kite.
Is this guy landing or taking off?

Arash, Fabulous work. I am not sure how you manage to track birds at 840mm...how big is the crop?

[arash_hazeghi]

thanks guys, neither landing nor take off just incoming

[arash_hazeghi]

Arash, Fabulous work. I am not sure how you manage to track birds at 840mm...how big is the crop?

it's about 82% width of the image.

Just killer. Hard to find words to compliment or critique it, it's pretty much perfect in every way. You are just rocking that lens.

[David Salem]

Killer is right. Great exposure and awesome detail from that combo. Nice BIF shot.

You sure have a smokn Kite spot. Do you see a marked difference on the 600s lock on ratio, specificly with a varied BG.

thanks again for your comments on my post. means a lot to me coming from an acomplished
bird in flight photographer like yourself.
