This is a very nice capture of the wings in flight. The pattern are gorgeous.

Behind The Lens

Location

Taken at a bird of prey centre near York England

Time

Taken mid afternoon on a cloudy day

Lighting

The lighting was overcast but the D810 enabled me to take the shot at 1/2000 without a problem

Equipment

Nikon d810 with tamron 150-600mm

Inspiration

I couldnt believe my luck. One of the handlers was flying the owl and it landed on a tree.When it took off again it was fairly easy to get the shot...just a question of timing

Editing

Just basic editing in lightroom

In my camera bag

These days I dont carry lenses since I bought a Sony RX10 m4 3 years ago. Its so good Ive never missed having a dslr

Feedback

Its easy when your at the right place at the right time
