Some shots of a stork from this weekend. They were taken out in the backyard. Wasn't really prepared for this rocket when it came flying by. I hate the "junk" in the background and I had a horrible time keeping this fast moving guy in the frame. Guess I should be happy I have anything to show. :scratch Wish I had a better background than the darn telephone lines and houses. Maybe my neighbors will move? :clap jk. I don't see many storks in my yard. This guy hung out on the roof for a while until he got nervous. I have that effect on some things. :huh


Cheers.

    Hi, Birdman, I really like your handling of the stork. The third one is my favorite, but most of them could also be.

    I like the eye detail.

    I have more, too, that I will put up. So many people use this forum and there are not as many slots on the front page as there used to be. I am glad that I found it over on the second page.

    You know I love storks.

    I had been busy, wonder what else I missed.:D

    Glad I got this,

    ginger

    Thanks Ginger. I thought you might enjoy these. I hope I get another shot at improving on these. This bird came in so quick...and quiet...I almost missed 'em.

    Did you stumble on this post....or did a little birdie tell you it was here. :D

    Just curious .

    I look forward to seeing your storks. eek7.gifthumb.gif

    Nice shots. Looks like you've got some big goobers on your sensor.

    Thanks. Goobers ...that sounds scary. I'm ughm...pretty blind. Care to help point out where the trouble is...and is it in the same spot in all the shots? I'm afraid I did not see any goobers...or gremlins. eek7.gif

    Boy...I hardly ever change lenses. I'll have to give the sensor a good cleaning. Grrrrr.

    Cheers
