Thank you. I love this one
Nicely caught my friend…
Andro
Thanks
Great shot, perfectly timed, nothing like a quick trigger finger, V. impressive.
Thanks. Helped having burst mode on. So not really a quick trigger, just lucky
Although a good excuse to have in case you want to impress anyone!
🙂
It is fantastic!
Thanks 🙂
Wow! This is an amazing shot!
Thank you Amber 🙂
A leap of faith, or actually “soaring” off the the edge! Wonderful Alastair! 🙂
Thanks Penny. It was amazing to see it leap like that
Amazing, Alastair!!!
Thank you Ren. Glad you like it 🙂
What a marvelous photo!
Thank you Elaine
Oh Alastair, what a magnificent shot!!!
Thank you Terry 🙂
AWESOME! Reminds me of a runway. Look – the next bird is ready for take-off!
It did take off a couple of seconds later 😀 Thanks Rosy
Take-off 🙂
So stunningly beautiful. Well caught.
Thank you 🙂
wonderful photo Alastair. Even the shadow…which looks sort of sinister because it’s not sharp and crisp like some shadows 😉
Thanks Lyn 🙂
Great action shot bro!
Thanks Roxi 🙂

Superb indeed!! Love the blue sky highlighting the take off
Thanks. I think this is one of my all time favourites
nice action shot
Thanks Bruce
that’s great timing. I’ve never realized they launch themselves like that before.
I didn’t. I had my camera on burst mode as I usually do, and it leapt. I couldn’t believe this one.
the tip of the wings look almost fluffy, I guess it was a windy day. But then again, aren’t they all!
Heh yep they are.
Yeah that is a pretty great shot! Just at the right second!
Thank you 🙂
You said it, Alastair. It’s superb 🙂
Thanks Celestine. 🙂
