I've always admired and envied those who take great BIF images and there are some inspiring examples here on UHH. So I've decided to enter the fray and start practicing BIF.

I caused much entertainment at the local boat ramp today as I flailed around chasing gulls......:oops: This one's almost flying but hey....I have to start somewhere. Suspect I have a lot more work to do before I get off the ground with BIF! :|

Good shot Zneb and nice to see you back. I haven't seen you on the site for some time. Maybe due to me not being here that often either. But Last time I heard from you, you were about to have a major medical procedure I think. Sincerely hope all went well and all is ok now.
