I'm not going to lie, I got a bit excited when I realised I had nailed this shot. I was oh so close to losing the light (the sun dipped below the horizon 15 seconds later) and if I hadn't taken the risk and moved a bit further around the field I wouldn't have managed to get this shot.
I had a rough idea of where I'd find these magnificent winged beings, however, seeing one moments after sitting on my stool was a massive surprise! It took a lot of patience and sitting around but the end results made it very worthwhile!
Below is my favourite (and only) sequence of shots from the evening.
