When seen coming in low to land if I shoot a little wide and get focus for the first shot chances are good there will be a series of photographs. That’s the plan anyway.

I try to start just about the time they ‘apply the breaks’.


While this looks like a large open lake it’s anything but that. There are tall grass and dikes all around this spot. The part you can’t plan is where they land, so I got lucky here.

Note the lack of photos of the touch down itself… luck ran out as grass to my left entered the last shots.
