    From Cape May about this time last year.

    D7200, 500f4 + 1.4 TC, ISO 800, 1/2500s @ f/5.6 (not sure about the fstop but that's what the EXIF says; lucky the birds were all pretty parallel to the plane.)

    Spot on Bill, I just wish they were a tad larger in the frame.

    Pretty sweet to get four ducks to coordinate this well! Nice HAs throughout and I like the hint of pink clouds along the bottom of the frame. I'm okay with the crop but could also see it shifted up a bit more as well. A image for this months theme in particular. TFS

    Well done Bill to get all four birds sharply focused--and even with the same fully open wing conformation. The clouds provide a nice base.

    Great banking capture, Bill. Nice detail on all four, and beautiful BG with pink clouds on blue sky.
