Description
When: October 21, 2021
Where: Dierenpark De Oliemeulen Tilburg, The Netherlands
We really enjoying photographing Birds in flight, but flight demos aren't always the easiest place to do so considering there's too often other people in your frame
Because Pino chose to walk, we were able to capture him without people
