p.1 #1 · Nailing the landing

When I saw this Peregrine come streaking in on my left and then disappear behind the cliff face I immediately swung to my right and focused on the branch hoping he was going to land. As soon as I grabbed focus on the branch I started firing. The first image is my first frame and the rest in succession, except for the last which was after he perched. I thought the wildflowers on the cliff face in the background really added to the captures. Thanks for taking a look !

I like all of these Garry yet the first is a stunner. Yes the flowers make a wonderful background. The last is my second pick.

If only that silly bird wasn't blocking those beautiful flowers
