Hey, how did you get those BE's off of my HD
Killer set from top to bottom! Each and everyone is over the top I was wondering if anybody got any good shots of the RTH that morning, he was a challenge to get a good bg on. You got one here The eagles are amazing, but I think you knew that already. I can just see you grinning while working on these files
I was PM'ing with Karl about bars getting raised around here and now this post
Way to go buddy,
Tim
Marla snuck me in with a jump drive......shhhhhhhhhhh
So glad you dug the set Tim, I had forgotten about the RTH we saw that morning till I was culling the drive, thanks for the nod buddy. And yeah the Eagle, I been smiling so much lately my wife thinks I got somethin goin on the side
Sorry for the omission in my first comment but I forgot to mention the KAY EFs!!! Wow, they are just too good. Hats off to you brother for nailing that SOB
Woowwww!! You outdid yourself here Sir Thomas!!!
The eagle is simply breathtaking! How amazing is that!
The shrike is just marvelous--the closest image I have seen. They are not easy!
Great work on the KF!
I am ready to go again!!!
Dang Tom!
You just won't let up now will ya buddy? Awesome series.
All of them are superb, but I'm so envious of the Northern Shrike - very nice bro.
And then there are the BE's which are just fabulous. I really like the lighting, detail and pose on the duckie in #8. I can see that one hanging on your wall.

Another gallery of very fine images Tom.
BIG congrats on the KF... the IF is terrific and the perched shots ain't bad either.
I also really like the NS, Quack from the Yak, and the Sparrow is beautiful.
I can't remember if there are any adjectives I haven't used yet to describe the BE series... Oh yeah, spectacular!
I am so glad for you guys that everything came together so well for that awesome opportunity.
Excellent work Tom.
Kirk
Thanks for the nod on the KF Kirk! I employed the Tim K. technique of approaching in stages and that's the closest I've gotten so far Appreciate your generous compliments so much Kirk, thank you Sir!

Wow another great set Tom.
Congrats on the KIF, love your Quacker and the BE are fantastic (don't think I used that to describe them before, but if I did it still applies )
Keep them coming!
Martin
Thank you Martin happy you enjoyed the set especially the Eagle
Woo, nice series! There's a lot of good stuff to look at here.
Does that shrike's lower bill stick up, out and to the side? The poor guy has some bad underbite, if that is the case.
Nice chickadee shot too, it looks like this one was posing for the camera. The fat, fat duck is nice too. And of course, those BE shots are amazingly colorful...

Wow Tom, what a terrific set this is. The bald eagle shots still amaze me. Have you figured out what type of tree that is? Favourites? They are all favourites but I'll pick 3,6,9 and 12.
Rob
Thanks a ton Rob, appreciate your kind words very much Sir
The tree is a Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) an import from China way back when. It's intersting this species was thought to be extinct in America until it was rediscovered in the early 40's. They are all over the place now thankfully
