Its been a tad crazy down here so I've been AWOL for awhile. First ny father-in-law started dialysis treatments (my wife and I had to drive him) and then 3 of my grandkids came down for a visit. My 14 month old grandson slept in my computer room so when he was awake I had no time to get online and when he was sleeping I was afraid to go online and wake him up.
Anyhow I'm back and here's my last set of flight shots from my rookery shoots.
Hope you enjoy.
Beautiful work, Harry! The last two are my favorites. I love how you always get them tack sharp and get all the detail in the feathers. You make it look easy. But I can't even get my butterflies sharp sometimes and they are hardly moving.
If I had to pick just one, I think it would be the first one in the series. I love the wing position, the great DOF separation, the lighting, and the twig in the egret's beak. Brilliant work!
Thank you Jerry. i'm kind of partial to that one myself.

...I think you have that DOF thing figured out fairly well!
I'm working on it Ric, I'm working on it.

Thanks Snappy. I take 500-700 shots on an average shoot. I keep the handful that came out sharp and I flush the rest.

Nice shots, Harry. Where is that rookery located? We have one here in Venice, Flordia that is pretty famous/popular. I unfortunately have not been there yet.
