On a windless, cold morning she came out of the nest after sitting on eggs most of the night. As she began to preen, I couldn't believe my luck when this happened. The feather just hung in the air forever. 5DMK2 & 500mm/1.4 teleconverter

great captures and I can relate to luck being a factor between a good image and a great image
