Thank you Colin
One of the first shots with Z8/500pf plus 1.4 III TC, wrong shutter speed 1/320 sec makes this shot interesting 8)

Very lucky shot! Were you able to identify the prey?

What a beautiful image Nasos
Whether the settimgs were "wrong" or the timing unexpected,  you've produced an amazing result.

A great example of nature photography and artistic impression,  plus you've conveyed the speed of the wing movements nicely

Thank you Bruno :)

Here is a Flamingo Ballet trying to find a place to feed and to be far from the human activity
Ζ8/ 500 pf last February

I feel blessed that I can take a walk and see such a beauty taking place in front of my eyes 8)
