Monarch in Flight
AJ

Caught this last summer on my first
outing with the 70-200L IS.
This monarch was nearby and I was
trying so hard to capture it while
it was still, but to no avail.
I'm glad though, because I really
liked this shot once I saw it ;)

PS was framing only.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Angela,
Great capture. It's wonderful to see the monarch in flight- a difficult shot to achieve. Roberta

Wow Angela, this is absolutely stunning! The horizontal layers in the blurred background add speed, as if you were panning the camera, but the foreground leaves reveal that is not the case - but still it gives it a sense of motion. This is so much better than any photograph of the monarch sitting could ever be! Be proud! --Olaf

Boy, you caught that one just intime. A little highter and it would have been in the shaddows... a little lower and it would be competing with that white line. Well done.
