That is a terrific shot. How high was it?
At least 4 locals seemed to return here in N Herts yesterday - I've been watching for them all week. Do you think alot of the same colonies travel together? |

Thanks for the comments everyone.
My new lens is a 300 F4L IS. And now I have started taking all my pics on manual as I just wasn't getting the results I wanted.
The swift was not too high but I have cropped the image a fair bit. |
