My first post on here. I love shooting Birds in flight. I also really enjoy Macro shooting. Here are some shots I got the other morning.

Went to check on some local Osprey the other morning. The 2 young 'uns are flying!

Poppa I think.

    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!"
