Excellent captures, Rosa! The PiP is simply great, it gives you the very idea of a chase ( can it be used for birds, too?..) . Lighting is great, there's even a fence...what else? Perfect timing...I would never be able to catch flying birds ...

Thank you so much Adele. Yes, it's the chasing season ;-) I was trying very hard to get a decent photo of at least one bird in flight, so I was pleased with this shot. Sophie was with me and she loves watching the wildlife.... another day out planned tomorrow :)

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Peter Castell club
Thank you very much Peter. Plenty of fences in Weymouth so I'm spoilt for choice. My granddaughter lives 20 miles away and I will be looking after her all day tomorrow. I have a few things planned, but will see what the weather is like.

Hi Rosa

I really like these! A bright sky and a massively fast shutter speed, and you have caught the flight of the ducks brilliantly!
The one being chased does make an unusual shape in the top picture!
A minature flying saucer maybe, or a drone in disguise!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a good weekend

Hi Peter,

I only had one go at this when they were in the sky, so I was a little disappointed with the flying saucer shape....that's exactly what I thought! That's why I added the PiP as they were just taking off.

Thank you for your very kind comments.

Best wishes, Rosa.
