It's odd that you lost focus when it was going perpendicular to your lens yet this stough happens. Even with this happening, you took some super photos Herb

Morris


Thanks Morris. It's tough to keep on the bird as they swoop down at high speed. The sensor likes to pickup fore and backgrounds much easier then.

What an awesome sequence, Herb! Great spot of the drowning pigeon, and of course Mr. Eagle-eye didn't miss it either. Great job capturing the action.

How dare the Mark IV lose focus at the grab! Guess you need to upgrade to the X

Jim


Thanks Jim. As it turns out it was user error. In shot 8, my AF points were in the foreground water. The next two frames were off as a result. I recovered focus for the butt shots though.

Just fabulous Herb...squab is just wonderful and certainly sounds much more exotic than pigeonneau. I also prefer it to fish so that eagle and I are of the same mind. (yes some have suggested I have a bird brain...beat you to it Ron ) ...great shooting Herb!

Thanks for stopping by Eric

You had a good eagle-eye to catch that. I wonder if there was another raptor involved, that put the pigeon in the water?


I'm not sure Steve, but there is a local peregrine pair, so that is definitely possible.
