North / Northwest Posted December 17, 2018 Share #1  Posted December 17, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) It's always entertaining to watch these birds glide thru the air. I never get tired of observing them. VL 114  Welcome, dear visitor!

North / Northwest Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share #3 Â Posted December 18, 2018 Thank you Alan. Interesting you mention the wing tips. I've taken numerous images with blurred wing tips that end up deleted and never posted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the image was cropped. If the bird were closer there would be much more detail in the head. You may want to checkout Stuarts bird images (STUNY) on this forum. He takes some very good examples of what the VL 114 can do in the hands of a skilled photographer. Edited December 19, 2018 by North / Northwest 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pecole Posted December 20, 2018 Share #8  Posted December 20, 2018 Wonderful! It reminds me the one who flew quite close my glider for more than one minute, tens of years ago. Unfortunately, I had no Leica at hand...and it was too "bumpy" to leave the control, anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That must have been exciting being in the air along with the bird. What an experience! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
