I had to spend a bit of time with this shot, the sky was rather washed out grey whilst the bird had caught the sun right on it; so spent a while going around so that I could get the blue from the sky whilst keeping the bird well exposed. Taken as a grabshot on a day when shooting an airshow (tip airshows on the coast are fun, but darn sea frets where its gets a bit misty in the air sap some sharpness at times - that and panning planes is HARD)
