Common Nighthawk In Flight Head On Key Largo
Kevan's busy today so I got to pick another image. I'm surprised that he has not posted this one before now. Kevan shot this in Key Largo as this Nighthawk flew straight at him.
Now imagine this...1) you never see Nighthawks during the day, 2) it's even rarer to see one flying during the day, 3) try to focus on a bird flying straight at you and 4) get the depth of field set to have the whole bird in focus. I can be standing right beside him and I still don't know how he does it. I can't get my camera up to my eye in time and he's nailed the shot!
This will be our last post for this year. We are getting ready for the holidays and will be back on Flickr around Jan 7th. We hope everyone has a safe, happy and healthy holiday season and 2013!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!
