A Screeching Stop

It was a very slow morning at Ding Darling last week. I contented myself with takeoffs and landings on the good light side of the road. This was an unintentional blur because of the low light, but I think it works.

I really like the pose and the colors!!!

I like the overall effect and you did well with the panning by getting the bird nice and sharp. The water is a pretty shade of green. Maybe a little CCW rotation. Thanks for posting!

Very good result at 1/80s on a 500+1.4. Love the colour of the water and wing blur.

I love the painterly look, Susan. Agree on the rotation.

Good panning. You got the sharpness right. The trail of water adds to the image.
