Stunning shot,RDWP! Great clarity and sharpness.

Thank you Mike! This one was fixed, almost motionless riding the wind.

... and, from the good old days, Canon F-1n, FTb, Mamiya 645 (m1000s), etc. -- Rob

Excellent! That’s looking like a very well fed pigeon!

Thank you. Yes, he's a regular visitor. The eye-tracking on my new R5 is brilliant, by the way.

It's all about the light...
