Howdee all,
Yes that's right…I have finally been able to capture flight. I recently bought a new camera. Canon SX1 and I am loving the fast shutter speed.
As some of you know I was a simple point and shoot gal. This is still a point and shoot.
Running start
Lift off
In the meantime…
my first birds in flight…
I will be posting soon a few dates for Birders who Blog, Tweet and Chirp outings.

ReplyDeleteDoing good with that new camera. They all take time to learn. Great captures of birds in flight. Even though I thought the first two were just walking on water. LOL!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos..I so need to learn how to use my camera beyond a point and shoot..I also agree with your indoor cat link....
ReplyDeletecongratulations! You did well!
ReplyDeleteWell done on the BiF. My first ones were all a blur. :-))
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I could capture that! Did you have to use a continuous shooting mode?
ReplyDeleteYou're getting it Dawn! Very nice Gulls in motion.

You are indeed quite a shutter bird. Wait. . . it's bug, isn't it. Shutter bug? Anyway, you're GOOD!
ReplyDeleteNo blurs, no half bodies...and the water is perfect. We can see the shallows.
Showoff. LOL!
Great photos of the birds in flight. They're the photos I like best and couldn't achieve at all with my old camera - so I know how much fun you are having now. Thanks for sharing!
