Assignment #188: Birds In Flight

One of the ultimate tests for both photographer and the camera’s AF system is getting a sharp photo of a bird in flight. A bird in flight photo is elevated to the next level when you also capture an element of behavior or a special look in the animal. For this week’s Assignment, send in your best shots of birds in flight. I’ll be looking for behavior and context in the frame when I select a winner. Submit your photos by July 29th at midnight. -Christopher Robinson, Editor
