What a nice series Raymond

I love Peregrines and you've definitely got a few keepers here.
Susan's keen eye on #4 catching the bird just as it goes into its dive pattern.
I hope you all caught PBS "Raptor Force" with the camera on the back
of a Peregrine going into it's G-Force dive...Great stuff...
Here's a taste in case you missed it.

Have a Great time on your workshop Raymond....
Be sure to share your keepers with us

Superb shots, Raymond. No favorites as I love 'em all. You've really captured the essence of the Peregrine Falcon here. I'd sign up for your flight shot workshop in a heartbeat if I wasn't 3000 miles away...

Best Wishes,
Steve

Ray,

you already know I love these shots. Too bad I live too far away to do the workshop with you.

Sounds great.

Very nice Ray.

Like #4 the best and am still deciding upon #2.

Saw Jody's shots earlier this evening and he'd mentioned you'd found this family and told him about them.

Really excellent set my favourite is No 4 - you got the perefct moment and the delta winged dive. Lot of energy and motion in that shot.
