Flying Dragons

[Loupey]

I know... I shoot/post flying dragons a lot here But action was slow and all that kept my interest were these fellows hunting and mating all over the pond.

Only the first image here at ISO 400, 300mm, f/6.7, 1/350s.

The others at ISO 800, 300mm + 2x, f/11, 1/250s. #3 and #4 are uncropped.

All hand-held, manually focused

Sorry - not very good - but hey they were at ISO 800 (approaching storm). The sharpest image came exactly 1 frame after #4 here. But the bugger was moving too fast and I clipped almost his entire right wing (his right, my left)
