Nice. This is where the 600mm focal length comes in very handy.

David de Groot said: Thanks :) Best of an average lot really - still need lots more practice panning with birds in flight. True. :-)

Excellent focus, those raised wings are really good.
David de Groot said: Thanks :) I had a few passes to practice with and was firing off burst of three shots at a time. A lot the focus was out (need to hold lens steadier and on target), but this one came out nicely and as a bonus had some interesting colour in it too.

Nice sheen across the water...
