Harris Hawk 1

Low light, high ISO, long lens is not the way I should have approached taking
pictures of something as fast and majestic as this hawk. But it was a bit hurried after
I saw two guys by the side of the road working this hawk and asked to take pictures.
But, as with so many photo-outings, I have made an interesting contact for better pictures in the future.

It was awesome to see nature in action at such close quarters!

This is wonderful, John. Such great detail in the feathers, the colours are great, and the eye is in good focus. GMV
