i don't think that i've ever seen one that was still! even in the nature books they are all flying. this is also so extremely sharp that it's just amazing! thank you for sharing.
That's one of the most incredible nature photo I've ever seen, both in skill of capturing, and the specimen you managed to get. What a beautiful animal. May I ask where you took this photo?
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.
