There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Nice shooting, Ted. I've only had the opportunity once, but did not do nearly so well.

They can be very erratic when flying. When skimming they can be difficult to shoot. They were for me the first two times I tried Al. The third time it was much easier.

Lovely shots alright !!
Depth of focus on the second one is ideal ..... both in crisp focus despite being at different distances.

Is the first shot a composite of the same individual ??
