    First time at the Red Kites with the new camera....and I must say, I am more than happy, especially with the focus system.....The Kites, at times were a wee bit too fast for the 1DX Mk2, but the R6 has solved that issue.....even with the 2x attached, the focus system locks on much better....HH.......ACR, Topaz DN and PS

    Will:

    Dramatic diving pose, eye contact, framing fits the action. Sharp, well exposed.
    Well captured.

    Very nice image of this kite Will.

    It was a toss up between the R6 and R7 for me, I wanted the reach so got the R7.

    Great action and a nice intense stare! Love the colors, pose, and detail across the bird. It's really striking. Only wish for all green background!
