    Was doing a satellite installation and taking photos of the dish when this chap circled low over the garden, unfortunately didn't have a chance to adjust the camera settings, but got a halfway reasonable shot.

    Thanks Chocky, I had to work on them a little to get them into any sort of viewable condition, I had the output of the camera on small files, so the starting resolution was not big, shame as they don't often come that close.
