CommentOne of my objectives on our recent trip to LHI was to get some decent photos of Black-Winged Petrels in flight. These magnificent birds nest on Lord Howe over the summer months. They fly at at high speed, often in pairs, often along the face of a cliff, making them a real challenge to photograph. On this trip, thanks to the advice of a local I was able to get a vantage point on the cliff at Ned’s Beach that allowed shots at eye level or above rather than from below.
EquipmentCanon 5D MK IV, Canon 300mm f/2.8 MK II ISO 800, f/6.3, 1/3200
LocationNed's Beach, Lord Howe Island
