Saved for web.Hi, could you explain a bit more how this image was taken?
Thanks, S
Shot was done in field. I was walking through tall grass and his lunch flew up and he caught it. Followed where he landed and carefully approached. Raised the tripod just enough to get a clear background. Being in a field of tall grass, it was easy to get a green background. They are hard to get close to but I think he was enjoying his catch more than noticing me. Wind was a constant problem. Didn't have flash with me. I bumped ISO up and took many photos as the wind died down to get a well focused shot. Thanks for looking.
