The Flight .....

The Flight .... !

I was watching this crow at the French Beach, Karachi almost 2 years back during one of my family visit. The different part about this crow was that, this bird did not have the tail which is very essential for flying (technically speaking). When this bird saw me trying to sneak in, sensing the danger he jump into the air and fly like there is no tomorrow. Some of you may see the fear of capturing/danger over this bird face. The thing which impress me much about this image was that, this bird did have the tail, and his wings are shattering if you can see, but still this small little bird pushed himself as hard as possible to get out from the danger zone ..... And look at us as a human .... we are trying as hard as possible not to get out from our comfort zone.

Some times technical mistakes leads you to some good shots. I forget to reduce may aperture down to f/11 and it was wide open to f/2.8. So wide aperture gave me opportunity to produce Hi-Key image.  Looks cool i guess ..... and focus also luckily was sharp.
