Just A Shot That I LIke… #23 – Prairie Falcon Take-Off
This morning I found this Prairie Falcon on top of a huge boulder – big enough that I was looking up at the bird. Its tail was hidden for the perched shots so my best hope was for take-off photos. 1/3200, f/6.3, ISO 500, 500 f/4, 1.4 tc When it did lift off it started out in my direction which didn’t give me the best light on the bird. After the first wing beat it banked to the birds left which was ideal for good light. Only problem – I clipped a wing on all those shots. Maybe next time I’ll remember to take off the teleconverter!
