Had this king fisher do the hover for me at a distance a few times. the images were pretty far away and a big crop but I figured what better time to make a sequence shot.

1)

2) just a flyby

thanks.

Might have taken 20-30 minutes to put together. I used the middle image as the base, and background. Then just selected background on individual images and did an inverse and cleaned it up a little with the selection tool. The background was basic sky so it was easy. Then pasted them to the original image and arranged them around. I made the middle image a little more vibrant to pop out and stand out from the rest. No resizing of images was done and the king fisher was captured at slightly different distances so they might be slightly different sizes. The middle image was obviously the closest to the camera
