These images had been taken last weekend, and I wanted to get the Scaup when is was going for a dive. Notice how fair the wings are tucked back.

    Very nice set! clap.gif

    #2&#3 are IMHO the best of the set, the splash in #3 just behind the scaup with the wake from the feet...just awsome!clap.gif

    The bird is pretty neat. I love the way you photographed the water and the splashes.

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    Hi Jeff, thnaks for the comments on these images. The camera helped with getting the shots with the MKIII, and I layed low on the little bridge walk way to get the nice angle. Thanks again.
