7. thank you!

this has long been my favorite subject. unlike my aircraft photos, opportunities for these are just rare. I was washing my car when I noticed two of these circling overhead in strong winds, gaining altitude so fast. I rarely go outside without my camera, and it paid off today!

It's sharp and clear beyond belief.
