I needed to really crank the shutter speed up on this but it happened so quickly I failed to react in time other than to just hold the shutter button down. I got a series of images, Focal length was too much for this type of action so several did not completely capture both birds or had wings clipped and most had more motion blur than this one. It was a real battle for about 3 seconds!!!

Sorry for the tardy review and judging.

Congrats to Kayaker and "Snowy Rose" It was a tough call between the bluebird, frozen waterfall and Brimstone Sunset.

Well done to all.

Mike
