    Wow! Either Jim is a great teacher or you are a fast learner! Superb bifs and the exposure is right on. I've seen crows with prey but I have never been able to capture one feeding. Good job!

    Terrific shots and a big improvement over your earlier posts. clap.gif I heard that Jim was a great teacher, I may have to sign up for one of his workshops.

    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!"
