Were they going under a bridge Peter? I\'ve had a couple of egrets fly under a bridge but they don\'t look anything like this.
Yes, Conrad, that canoe was going thru the shade under the bridge.
Now, so many things play with the light in that kinda shot.....it\'s not even funny. Suffice to say I tried to get a similar background with a pijun in flight, also this morning. (A few pijuns congregate under the same bridge.)
Well, it just was not working out. Only one worthwhile flight took place, and this is the best shot of it I\'ve got....not a good shot either. Besides, wouldn\'t call it \"in flight\" but just applying air brakes which is really much easier stuff from the AF standpoint.
(That\'s why on N&W forums you see so many \"in flight\" shots of ducks as they are landing. )
