Always wanted to capture a decent image of mature RTH in flight. I was lucky to get these few shots using car as hide. 5d3 at 700mm, handheld.

Gorgeous to say the least. The wings down I like the most as they almost give it a cape-like appearance.

Excellent shots! Love the colour of the BG in your last one, it adds a lot to the photo.

A great set of images. The 5D3 appears to produce a unique quality..... lots of detail without the need to over-sharpen.

Beautifully executed series of images Ruhikant!
All are exquisite, but something about the posture in the 1st image makes it my favorite. You must have a very tall car - :lol:
