Hi Herb. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Yup, it is hot already. Last week we saw mid nineties!

Light and shadow utilized at it's best Socrate
Fine use of the extra light
As always, you make it impossible to pick

Tom





Thanks Tom. I appreciate your comments. As you know I enjoy shooting in those conditions

The first three are spectacular with #3 being awesome! Fine work in the filtered light Socrate. Exposure #1 rocks! I keep going back to the Spoonbill, love it buddy.

#1 GH looks normal to me, #2 and #3 look strange, color is odd appearing to me>? Strange catchlight in #5, yellow-double or perhaps simply a unique marking to this bird. I like the last of this group best

Karl






Thanks for looking and commenting, Karl. Glad you mentioned the GH shots. I thought the same thing when I was shooting that bird. Colors were dull and didn't look vivid even in the bright sun light. The overall appearance looked weird. May be it is a very old GH.

Cool shots for 90 degrees, Socrate, but I think you could do better if you had another body.

Thanks for the comments and the suggestion, Tony. I knew I should have brought also the 1DMkIII

All are great Master S., as usual, but #1 really stands out for me, great control of the whites. Soooo pretty in its breeding plumage.
