Pardalote in Flight

[Alan]

The Spotted Pardalote is still attacking his reflection.

The very average weather kept me indoors, so I experimented with high speed flash sync through the dirty window (waste of time), and then I tried high ISO to freeze the action. Only got two keepers and made one of them a bit 'oily'

These are at 2000 ISO, 1/800, f/5.6, +5/3ev. D7000 300mm, through a dirty window, coated with a tinted film - the PP took ages. (just as well I had nothing better to do )

It was worth it.. well done!

A good way to pass some time.

And that your PP skills are up to it. I would have probably had to delete my attempts.

Amazing shots Alan, especially #1. Getting one of these in frame is beyond me, let alone in flight.

Thanks everyone - he's still out there
