Walking along the beach one early morning in search of snowy owls we spotted this guy flying fast along the dune toward us. As fast as I could I got my camera off my shoulder and jammed the tripod into the sand and got the bird in my viewfinder as best I could and fired off 9 frames on my 1V which lasted 1 second. When asked if I got that I said I honestly had no idea. When the slides came back I was thrilled to find that in 2 of the middle frames (which lasted all of .2 seconds the bird had turned it's head toward us! I had no idea that had happened. The dark background is storm clouds on the far horizon while the sun was rising over my shoulder.
