Kestrel With Meal

[Michael Lotito]

Canon 1D Mark III With EF 500mm F4 and 1.4 tc
1/2000 sec, F10, ISO 1600

This underwent some very heavy cropping. I am happy with my result!

Thanks for looking

Good to see it here. As I said in my e-mail, the only negative is the merge of the head with the far wing. Otherwise a cool pose. There is some funkiness in the BKGR in front of and just below the bird. Sky and EXP are very nice.

There's no doubt about it, those high-ISO cameras are the thing for fast action. Good shot. Any reason why you used f10?

[Dudley Watson]

Good image well done

[Kiran Poonacha]

Great timing on this one, loved pose achieved...

Mike, Nice capture, I agree w/ the marks in the BG and the wing and beak merge but these guys are so hard to get perched let alone flying in. Well done.:)

[Myer Bornstein]

Nice capture. everytime I see a kestral it is flying away from me so no pictures :D
