Seeing-Eye to Eye.

Was outside mowing,had just finshed,when i saw this little falcon fly over,(Australian Hobby),He started circling-so i quickly got camera,and adjusted settings to 1250,iso 400 F5.6 it was 4.30 pm =so getting late.

By the time I took aim he was moving away,but got this shot,when i reviewed them,he appears to be looking straight into lens!,only had time for a few shots,nothing to lean on,all free hand.

I hope this may be of interested,cheers Chris

For a snap of a fast moving object the result is great. Master of the air!
