Peregrine Falcon

First try at panning. Well, first try that I dare to post that is. While we were at the beach, we saw a Peregrine Falcon nest high on a cliff. You could see across the way to the nest, but none of the shots were anything to show. What I did like was that one of them kept flying across the cliffs to another spot to wait a while. Probably it was a distraction from predators. I was pleased with my shots of him sitting, but decided to post this shot of him flying, as it is for me a new thing to try and capture the motion of something.
