    A flight shot of a Pied fly catcher from last June arise in corporation with Paul van Hoof. We used a photo trap to get this result . This year we hope to get more of these pictures. More results on my website www.hanbouwmeester.nl

    Hans:

    Your photo isn't showing up, and the link didn't work for me either, so I couldn't link the photo for you.

    Please try again.

    Thank you; I see the problem. But I can't find the icon to change my post. (?)
    So I try it again this way.

    Han:

    Glad you got the picture up.

    Excellent wing position, exposure, angle in frame.

    I would remove the extra flash catchlights.

    It looks like the focus point was on the near wing, as its sharper than the head.

    Hope to see more.

    Cheers

    Not much to add to Randy's comments.

    Wing position is really good and also look forward to seeing more.

    Interesting looking website and I'll have to come back for a longer look. A very nice variety. Neat photo on the home page.

    Fixed the link for you

    Good job freezing this guy's wings...I was confused by the exif but then saw that you used a photo trap. I agree with Randy on the other points.

    Thank you all. I have to say I can't see my own picture but know waht you mean. It's one of the first results of this new project.
    @Daniel: Yes, as I wrote; I used a photo trap.
