    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!"

    I think they are great shots! There is no way I could have hand held my camera, and gotten images as good as these. Well done.

    Glad the eagle(s) are back. <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/clap.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" > You becareful liftin that lens like that.

I might have to give big brother Jimmy a call and visit. Not bad for hand held 500mm. If you had a Canon you could have cranked that ISO to 1600 and used a super high shutter speed. <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/eek7.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" > :D <runs off and hides>

    It's not easy using that 500 handheld and I don't recommend it. There just was no other way.

    Haven't a clue on that eagle spot. As for cranking up the ISO my shutter speeds ranged from 1/1000 sec to 1/3000 sec. How fast would you suggest? :D

    Great shots Harry, Even better that they were hand held. Kinda like shooting a rifle, tuck in the arms, take a deep breath, release slowly and squeeze the shutter gently. Nice captures.
    Have a great day!

    Who said I was "nice", that's an unfair attack on my rep. :pissed.

    I know you've seen pictures but you both are getting up there in age and I'm not really confident of your short term memories. :lol4

    I was pleased with myself for capturing some seagulls in flight the other day...But Man these are impressive!!!! Wow:ivar

    Thank you very much CD. Actually the difficulty level between gulls and eagles in flight and that much different.

    Thanks Orv, shooting an M-16 was a lot easier than shooting the 500mm though.
