Mallard in flight
Caught this panned shot with the 200 f2.8 in Leazes park, it was really a grab shot as the duck went past, but I think it works rather well
Also this family of Canada geese were stalking around the lake, like a bunch of gangsters
Best wishes

Re: MIF
Hello Paul,
Both are very good photos indeed. Somehow I never can get my feathered neighbours-the seagull parents and the babies- right in one frame or in the right time frame. Either they are all over the roof doing their own thing or the babies demonstrate their flying skills when they see me shooting some slowly-passing ship in the balcony which actually means that the camera is set to a slow shutter speed and the babies all come out as hilarious ghosts.
Enviously hailing these photos!

Re: MIF
Only a little sharpening of the flying duck in PP to allow for web compression, here is a new conversion of the raw file with no sharpening whatsoever
The 200 f2.8 lens is pretty sharp
Cheers

Re: MIF
That combination of absolutely sharp body plus motion blur on the wings definitely works. Excellent craftsmanship + good eye = keeper!
Astonishing for me is the richness of visible detail even without any additional sharpening.
