Heron in flight

Good shot,it is really possible to do it handheld?

Best regards

High class nature shooting. Crisp and a beautiful composition, and in the air!

Well done.

A big thank you to David, Philip, Mariusz, Mary, Jan and Birte for looking and commenting. I am glad you liked this photograph.

Mariusz, I was on the cliff overlooking the bay. The heron was along to my left perched on a fence post. I waited and eventually it flew slowly in a wide arc from left to right against the cloudy sky. It was not much above eye level from my vantage point so I just panned and took a sequence of six shots most of which were quite sharp. This one I liked best.
