Peregrine banking

[Ofer Levy]

1D Mark II, Canon 500 f4, x1.4, 1/2000, f5.6, iso 400, HH

Got this a few years ago here in Sydney with the 1D Mark II when getting BIF looked so easy...
Neither the Mark III nor the Mark IV get anywhere close to the Mark II when it comes to AF performance IMO. Unfortunately, the small file size keeps me away from getting one for BIF.

Cropped from a horizontal some canvas added to the top for composition.

Killer banking pose with sweet eye contact! Very fine detail on the feather. This is on my most wanted list.

[Sidharth Kodikal]

Amazing pose and details. The crop is spot of perfect imo. Superbly done.

[Angad Achappa]

Very nicely done here. Great details and a perfect HA.

[Sudhir Shivaram]

The composition is perfect with the falcon tilted at an angle and placing it in the vertical frame. The lighting and the details adds to the impact of the image.

Rgds,
