I was with a pair this weekend and tried to get one shot off just like this. I only have a 300mm so I have to be very close. I was close enough to get a shot as close as yours, but the backgound and other crap in the way made it look so bad. Your photo is Stunning !!! Very Sharp ! Great comp ! and beautiful background !!!!!!!

A very cool image and I don’t think I have seen a shot like this with this species. Nice complimentary colors in the BG. Excellent!
Thanks Gary. It’s really fun to photograph them taking off.
