The shots I posted the other day were all with the wings up. Here are a couple that show the other side.:D

    Good captures Ric, love watching sandhills in flight.

    When I first got down to Florida our agent drove us to the location where we now live. While we were driving dowm the street I looked out the window and right next to the car were two sandhills flying along side of us. I knew that this was the place where I would settle down.

    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!"

    Thanks, Stephen! :D

    I do have a habit of making them a little dark. I hate blown highlights and like the subtlety of dimmer light.
