Description Practising birds in flight shots. I cheated a bit offering up fish and chips to them! But it worked!

I love the shape of the wings!

How'd you get such a dark background? Did you use a flash or something?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

carterr In reply to badchess [2008-03-31 10:50:58 +0000 UTC]

No - the trees in the background are dark green, but they were in shade - with the last of the days light on the bird

Cool. I had a shot like that once (a seagull sitting). Turned out really nice, though with no action not nearly so nice as your shot.

carterr In reply to badchess [2008-04-01 02:56:45 +0000 UTC]

flight action is really difficult - which is why I was cheating by offering them chips

badchess In reply to carterr [2008-04-01 03:01:40 +0000 UTC]

Ha, cheaters always prosper.

Here is the shot I mentioned:

Just a gull, but I somehow managed to hit it right on (without even using chips!)

I really like that seagull - and I think it's better without the full pillar

True - although the chips were yummy - seemed a waste to feed them to the gulls
