    Hey Ben,

    Another excellent series. I was going to congratulate you on demonstarting how one could get outstanding shots w/o a big, expensive DSLR but it seems that you are about to get the D2Hs so I won't. You never know if a spouse is looking in. rolleyes1.gif

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Great shots
    And I love the one with the fish.

    Where are you shooting these? Looks like quite a gathering of the feathered ones wherever you are.

    I saw your post so while out today I took this

    20683687-M.jpg

    It borders Marina Del Rey & Playa Del Ray. These areas lie about 6 miles south of Santa Monica and only a couple miles north of LAX. Most all my recent bird posts have come from this area. I don't think it's as people friendly as yours seems to be. We got lots of $$$ Construction along with Electronic Arts (steven speilbergs joint), not to mention the Airport barring much of the easier access routes. :cry

    Thanks for your interest, glad you enjoyed thumb.gif
