Hi Howard,
This is a really great capture. Your technique shows. The sharpness of the eyes, head, and thorax make this image stand out. Well done.

Outstanding in flight capture, Howard. Superb detail and perspective, and the DF is perfectly positioned in the frame.

Are you training them to hover on command, Howard? Just incredible detail for a df in flight. Very well done!
