PHOTO BOMBED

Enlarge for best view. Posted sooc except for slight cropping.

Took this shot when we went to Chadwick Lakes.

This guy is a much more difficult subject to capture in flight than any living being I ever saw. He never stopped moving from one place to another, coming round again for a quick look around and disappearing immediately after. His flight was erratic so you won’t know which way he’s going. He wouldn’t give me time to focus and after many attempts I was giving up when I tried a last shot. Luckily I think I got a good enough one to show.
Thank you very much for wonderful comments and your fav's on yesterday's picture.
What a fantastic capture though! Worth it! :)

Great catch Dione. I am going to take time out from 365 for a while, just too much going on and I cannot get on top of things. Will stay in touch by email.....
