Take Off!

[JimFox]

This is back from May at a Nature area near my daughters house in Northern Colorado. This is why I love to run with a camera or two slung over my shoulders.

I caught this guy taking off. Normally, I am too slow on pressing the shutter, or I just press the shutter once, too many years of Landscape Photography. To keep the shutter button pressed down longer then the initial image doesn't compute with my brain, so I miss tons of bird images.

But I am working with my brain and my finger and it's getting better slowly.

Nikon Z6III
Tamron 50-400mm - The perfect little lens. While 600mm would be nice on it, the versatility of how small it is, makes up for it.

All comments are welcome,

Good sequence. Having a good fast capture rate is nice for sports but even better for birding.

Doesn't your Z6 III have precapture where it buffers up a few shot when you have the shutter button pressed halfway?

A very nice sequence! You give the lens credit, but that's just a small part of the result you achieved.
