Trying my hand at a difficult discipline. John Baker and Alan Bastin were kind enough to let me gatecrash a photo session they'd organised photographing woodland birds in flight. I've always enjoyed nature and would love to have more time to sit in a hide and watch/photograph wildlife in all its forms.
A new camera at Christmas prompted me to give this genre a go! A helluva lot to learn - and I threw away 99.9% of today's efforts!
However, one or two seemed to work - to a certain degree! Still not up to the very high standards of the boys - but it's a start! Now that I've a better idea about how to go about this - I am determined to give it a go in the back garden henceforth!
Some of the shots!

| OK! So it's a "bird on a stick"! So what! |
 |
| Poised for flight! I missed the moment!! Pooh! |
 |
A bit "busy" - and it's another Blue Tit in flight!
I will keep practicing!! |
