   Fantastic shots, especially the in-flight. The wiki link was interesting as well, as I’ve never taken time to study them, thank you.

   Flying Gannets = superb. Love the timing, crispness of focus and colours, etc. Was this a pan or was the bird in focus stalling out?

     Hello Allan 🙂

     Thank you!

     I Had the lens on F8 and set the iso to auto up to about 800 and just panned like you say. When I got home I was very pleased to see the results!

     Thank Allan
