Taken at my last visit to the Yorkshire Birds of Prey Centre.

My last visit to the Birds of Prey Centre (back in October last year!!) highlighted just how much the auto-focus of Canon’s 60D sucks. I lost a lot of shots on my last two visits because the 60D just couldn’t keep up. (One time with an L lens as well.) In comparison, Nikon’s D90 – which I used on my first visit – coupled with a slow focusing lens did a much better job.

Then again, I got some nice blurry shots to play around with, but this one really stood out, and after some playing in post, I got this. Sometimes, shapes and colours combine to give you something that just stands out. This was one of those images.
