    Today I went out to do some shooting of a different type. I was skeet shooting with some of the folks from work. But I thought it would also be good practice for birds in flight photography. After all, that is what it is trying to simulate.

    It was dark and overcast, but what the heck, it was still fun and very good practice. No real spectacular shots, but it improved my ability to raise the camera, find, and focus in on a small rapidly moving object. I really recommend it!

    And no, I did not shoot the shotgun and get the photo at the same time.

    Canon 1d IV, Canon EF 70-200 f2.8 IS II, EF 2X III, at 400 mm equivalent, Shutter priority, +2 1/3 compensation,ISO 6400, f6.3, 1/3200, 40 point autofocus “ring of fire”

    I have a high sarcasm rate. Deal with it.
