Wonderful captures Brian.

The more I try to get a shot in focus the more I appreciate the skill in shots such as yours.

Thanks Bas :)

I'm using focus peaking in the EVF a lot nowadays- helps my old tired eyes.

The marmalade in flight is outstanding. I know how exceedingly difficult that sort of capture of hovers is.
