You have 50 comments on this shot Marcus so I'm sure there's nothing more I can add other than that I'm totally awestruck as always. I do however like the background to this one. Although camouflage like it does highlight him.

Hi Marcus,
On the weekend, I saw an amazing site from the kayak. A small falcon, or kestrel. was hunting down a barn swallow. It took him a couple of minutes, but finally got him after two hits in mid-air. He hit the swallow quite close to me the first time. Needless to say, I didn't even attempt to take any photos. This was an extremely speedy situation.

Showing off? Showing off your seemingly effortless ability to capture the impossible. These are so far beyond what most of us could do. Can't even imagine it.

thanks Fabrizio, I always try to hit the head, but this bird was going very fast and in this case I shoot continuous and hope to hit him with my center focal point on the body....

Hi Marcus,
Great detail as always!
Interesting colours and shades in this background. Is it the side of a hill or mountain?

....beautiful pose...the focus is on the wing ..(did you want that?)...or It's a case??!!!....I think It's better than the head in this case because in that pose he's showing his beautiful wing colors and details...
regards Fabrizio and sorry for my english..I hope you understand what I mean...
