[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I love my new lens! Can only seem to get good landing pics right now though because the crows stall in the air just long enough for me to get good focus on them. In flight pics are harder, especially with the ducks. They fly so fast!

Hello Ashley,
Your camera and lens are doing their job very well, now your subjects have to start cooperating and give you a better pose. It's still a nice shot technically, but if you could just see his head it would make it much more of an eye appealing image.
Great stop action in flight shot, that shows a lot of sharp detail in the fully open wings. The colors look very natural and the exposure is right on the money. Cant wait to see what you capture next!!

Hi, Ashley,
Another fine shot of the crow. Excellent sharpness. Good POV.
Is it a crow's airport? TFS!
Best wishes from Russia!
