    I was happy to capture this one with a wing flap. I usually only get them kiting or soaring.

    7D, EF400mm f/5.6L
    Manual mode, f/5.6@1/1250 ISO 400 WB 5100K
    AI Servo autofocus, hand-held no flash

    Kerry I like the pale blue BKGR and the detail in the wing feathers.

    You don't get a lot of wing flaps with these guys, and you made the most of your opportunity. Excellent detail! I would darken the sky a bit and also crop some off the top and bottom.

    Kerry, Very nice details and I love seeing the down stroke wing position on one of these guys. Nicely done.

    Wow, I hadn't seen this when I posted mine in ETL this morning. You got the detail mine missed. Like it a lot!
