psquared Posted December 30, 2007 Share #1 Posted December 30, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Well, these are associated with sports and leisure time. This was flying over my backyard this morning. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a better angle on it, because I have a tiny backyard typical of Los Angeles. R9/DMR + 800/5.6 (I was backyard birding.)

Marquinius Posted December 30, 2007 Share #3 Posted December 30, 2007 So what you couldn't get a better angle ... ? This one is great as it is! And you must have had your camera available just like that, which is a message in itself. Great shot, very sharp, I like it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

psquared Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted January 1, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Henri, Marco, Allan, Stuart, and Gunnar, Thank you very much for your kind comments. I happened to be taking pictures of mourning doves with the set-up at the time, so I had the big gun ready to go. Happy New Year! Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
imported_peter_m Posted January 1, 2008 Share #8 Posted January 1, 2008 Peter, Good catch of the big bird I like the shot and lucky you had the right piece of gear at hand. I got a picture of one of those somewhere. One flew up the river valley and by the time I had the camera out al I had time for was a couple of quick snaps. You don't get to see those things to often.
