    Default Brahmini Kite BIF with a catch

    Camera Canon EOS 7D
    Exposure 0.001 sec (1/1600)
    Aperture f/5.6
    Focal Length 280 mm
    ISO Speed 125
    Exposure Bias 0 EV
    With the 70-200 f/4 L IS USM + 1.4 TC III, hand held. Practicing my BIF shots, this is the Indian equivalent of the Bald Eagle, was glad to catch it with a fish in its talons. May not be tack sharp but am still learning. Thanks for your C & C. it's always welcome.
    Regards
    Sanjeev

    You did a pretty nice job. You have a great head angle. Great wing position
    and the bird looks sharp. The only downer is the sun position. If only he had
    been flying the other way, into the sun instead of it more in the back.

    Thanks Doug, your words are great encouragement to me. I will keep the direction of the sun in mind the next time.

    Hi Sanjeev, excellent job on the flight capture! Only major issue is the light angle as Doug mentioned - can't really expose for both bright sun and shadow at the same time. Keep them coming, you are doing great!
