All my lenses were in a pre-flight storage locker except for the 24-70 2.8L

ISO 200 , f/5.6 , 1/320 , 70mm

1/3 second later

ISO 200 , f/6.3 , 1/320 , 70mm

And just to show that even religious fanatics can be pulled to the dark side...

    If you hadn't shown me the pole, I'd have never known! Good work!

    The bird is seriously OOF. What happened? Was the AF off?

    Nice try on the panning too. My experience has been it takes a
    lot of work to get good at motion panning.

    Ah, but closer inspection shows the top of the pole is still there!

    You still won't find me doing it with serious shots. I really am against the process unless the finished product is clearly identified as having been 'shopped.

    Snatched the camera off the table and there was probably too much motion for the AF to figure out what to lock on. By the 2nd shot it had locked in on the claws

    Panning is difficult. I have a long way to go before I have a panned shot that pleases me.
