Flight Shot

One of the reasons for buying the 70D was the promise of better flight shots. I must admit I was thinking more of birds than planes, but today as we were exploring Broom gravel pits and caught these two flying out of Shuttleworth (Old Warden) Aerodrome. A 1936 Westland Lysander, followed by a 1991 Yakovlev (Aerostar) YAK-52.

On the bird front there was no sign of the ever elusive Merlin so RCB has to make do with a Flock of Greylag Geese. Driving home we came across our first Red-legged Partridges of 2013 but in dying light only the cameras 8000 ISO setting allowed any sort of recognisable shots, but definitely not blippable.
