Osprey Whisperer

Just a few more from February Florida shooting that I worked up. (no..I still didn't get around to reading those PS books..can't you tell :rofl )

Some of them "white things"






....and a pelican.

Thanks Jeff. I think Dallas may need some strong glasses? I wish I was young(er). I am not as ancient as you Cali pineapples...but lets just say I was old enough to remember the first moon walk. I arrived in the States about the same time as those mop haired fellas from England. You know..the Beatles. Also arrived the same time that action figure G.I. Joe arrived. (guess the year yet? ) So...I guess young is all a matter of where you park your walker or leave your dentures. It was my immature behavior, wrinkle free complexion, boyish looks, charm and the sunglasses : that threw William. :uhoh

Oh...that reflection got clipped in processing. Hmm now how did I do/miss that.

Nice series Mike. I love that last Pelican in flight, although as Jeff said a "Real Man" would have captured his reflection as well :D :lol4

Thanks Steve. What...do I have to go back and find the original and include the reflection? It's not even that good of a reflection. At least Igot the full bird. You 500mm shooters would have surely chopped the wingtips.

I probably shouldn't do PP so late at night. I get sloppy...well...more than usual.

Here..just for you reflection lovers.

Ok, I stand corrected..........great shots for an old geezer Mike

Osprey Whisperer

Thanks William. I think "Geezer" is pushing it a bit. I've still got all my teeth and listen to that "Rock 'n' Roll" music really loud!!

Great set. I guess #1 is my favorite. Turned out the reflection was overrated.

But, that pelican kind of looks like a WWII bomber or one of those flying box cars that can carry tanks and such. When you can't see the spread of his wings it makes you wonder how he even gets off the ground.:D
Cool shot actually, I like the colors too.

Good shots from a seasoned photographer. Seasoned is a nice way of saying geezer. :lol4

Me too.............:D

Thanks Snapapple. The pelican is a rather strange flying "thing" isn't it. They also have a fierce appetite.

Thanks Harry. Who's calling the kettle gray? You're old enough to be my "old man".

Dallas...you're the man. Eagle shots, Rock 'n' Roll..and you can chew your own food. Atta boy.
