      Moment is good, but IQ is down from what I would expect of the lens/body combo - large crop? Also 1/320 is not fast enough for long lens and fast moving bird, so motion blur quite evident in the body and wings, faster is better, work around 1/1000, its really the way to go. Exp is OK-ish, but really a little hot on the whites flanks, wings,tail combined wit the motion blur loosing too much detail.

      Thanks Simon. I used a loan lens and was still getting used to it. Will keep your advice in mind next time!

      Again I fell in the trap of cropping maybe to much! I had a look at the original and I am sure with a bit op proper Phothoshoping I better image might be possible. Not pro standard, but better!
