• The Bristol Gull.

  I’ve not been to many places in England but nowhere have I seen gulls as big as in Bristol. Servo Focus basically takes bird pictures for you.

• What a Difference a Lens Makes.

  Shot with my speedy Tamron 70-300mm. The AF speed is comparable to Canon L lenses. Combined with Servo focus and a bit of luck, makes shots like these take a single try.
