Breakfast on the wing!

[Laurence Jackson]

An adult welcome swallow was feeding a youngster this morning on the Canning River, WA...I guess they do pretty much everything on the wing!

Ok, so you’re going to claim this was without a battery grip and you’d decided to use single shot mode to save space on the card. You do realise it isn’t humanly possible to catch a shot like that? So errrr…. what are you?

Look, up in the air, it's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's superphotographer

Definitely the battery grip...and it was morning so I hadn't drunk too much by then.... True though, I restrict my shooting to one shot per day on a 2GB sd card..so it has to REALLY count, and as I'm a purist, it is single autofocus point all the way, no cheating with group area or anything like that! If I miss the eye, then I ground myself for a week...

Talk about setting a challenge for yourself....! Great result. Swallows on single point. Respect.
