I took this shot from Harington Point, on the South Island of New Zealand on our recent "trip of a lifetime" south of the equator. It was just about to touch down in its nest on the cliff overlooking the green-blue ocean below.
Probably the best bird shot I've ever taken.
Rebel 350D & Tokina 100-300 tank, er, I mean lens.
I hope someone else likes this shot as much as I do!

Thanks guys!
My arm was sore for 3 days after hauling that tank of a lens around that day. I think it was worth it! grin
