Hi Norma,
A good first attempt and practice makes perfect. I'll have to think about the best settings you need to capture one of these guys in flight............................Jim

Norma, great catch! I am surprise to see the noise at iso 800 with this camera but this can be fixed in post-processing

Catching one of these on the fly is very challenging, Norma. Congrats on your success here. Inflight DF pics are on my summer to do list also. Yes, the abdomen is a bit overexposed, but it's a good start with the DF nicely sharp from head to tail. That says that your shutter speed was good.

A great catch, even if a little soft and noisy.
Keep practicing!

Norma, I have yet to get a decent shot of a DF in flight, so I think this was a great capture, knowing how hard it is to capture.
