Arial Ballet

[Nick Lukey]

The young swallows are now fully on the wing. I managed a few frames yesterday. Been a pleasure to see this wonderful part of nature. Fuji XT1 55-200.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Great timing there, Nick. Amazing birds.

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Magical timing Nick, a superb image.

 

[Tom Dunne]

That's a real beauty Nick. A brilliant tight rope act. You got excellent focus on the birdies.

 

[Paul Lange]

Nicely caught and I like the way the line divides the image.

 

[Pete Askew]

Super timing. I'm intrigued by the beak (?) off to the left!

That Pete has a razor sharp eye, we better be careful
Beautiful sequence on the website Nick.

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

It is hard to even see this in a spur of a moment, let alone photograph it so acurately. Superb shot. ( I thought you had sold that lens by now Nick ).

Hi Ivar hope your well.
I was considering it, but it delivers such crisp images, I doubt I will let it go, maybe when they get an f 2.8 version I will change up.
