I posted a few images of landing peregrine falcons and also some of taking off. Here is a female falcon that showed off what she could do. These images are from a sequence that included the falcon flew towards me at a high speed. I had the focusing limiter on and the falcon did get closer than that and of course, it was out of focus . It turned around to my right and flew away from me. While doing that, it turned her head and looked at me. It almost did it to tease me. Just FYI, the land mass in the background Palos Verdes Peninsula, a posh community.
FYI, I will post more images from the sequence in the Nature and Wildlife forum on Saturday. Edited to include the link to that thread now: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1660461. Thank you!

Hello folks: I hope you are all well. Today I was looking through old files on my PC and I ran across this old image made in Winter 2014, and never posted, exhibited or sold. It was made with my old Sony A7R. I eventually went to an A7RII, and now an A7RIV. It was made with a Sony A mount 28mm lens with adapter. ISO 400, 1/60th at f6.3. Thanks for looking.
