went out with a friend this morning. got out of bed really early, and the light was poor. had to bump up the iso. Used the 7d with 100-400 IS.

this was shot ISO 3200, and then pushed another stop. could not get close to him before he took off.

The last shot of the kestral with the wings out and the lighting behind it is the one I like best.
