Congratulations Ken!
Nice progress from #1 to #2
Rest is all great
I'm "almost" at 1000 posts, hmm, what to shoot...deer or Herons ?
The progress hasn't been as swift as I would have liked and I just hope I don't platue My grandfather would have said shoot the Deer and photograph the Heron but he lived in a different time than we do

No.3 and 4 are super. No.5 would be untouchable if the eye of the fish were sharp, it is still a very good shot anyway. Terrific series, well done Ken.
Paul.
Thanks Paul, The carp shot was unfortunately way underexposed when I got it and only through a lot of work in post was I able to bring out that much. The water spray took it's toll on the point of focus. Stil, pretty pleased with that shot and glad you enjoyed them.

Congrats!!!! I'm still amazed by your RTH shots!!! I can't wait to get a 500mm
Thanks Brenton. Everytime I get a good encounter with a RTH I am quite pleased with it. But, it's like drugs and alcohol, it becomes addictive and I am always Jonsing for more
If you do get the 500 I gaurantee you won't be dissapointed. Just make sure you hit the gym for a few months before hand if you plan to hand hold that puppy
Awesome captures Ken, and congratulations on you 7000th post. It somehow coincides with my first post here on FM and it shows that I have a lot of catching up to do
They're all great but the image that's etched in my mind's eye is that of the Harris hawk, absolutely stunning! Hope to see you again at Bolsa/SJWR sometime soon.

Wow, talk about the power of the internet. It's hard to imagine another venue where anyone, anywhere, would listen to Ken 7000 times.
Congratulations Ken.
No one ever said they were listinging to me, JB. That would be way too much to ask!

Hi hung,
Chances are good we have passed each other by now but you need to do more to stop and talk with other Photogs and introduce yourself or we will never make the connection With regards to the next 7k lets just take this 1000 at a time - ok? Thanks buddy!
...yeah your pics suck
