Nice captures, Dan. Unfortunately, under FM Rules, these do not qualify as "portraits".

Great images and using a 300mm focal length too. Was that with or without the crop factor?

Beautiful pics Dan.
Maybe you should approach them from the other side

Or go to Dick on Aruba's website and read the interesting article there by Morris on how to sneak up on your prey!
Cheers,
Martin

Thanks Martin and for the laugh

These are really, really nice Danno.
Good light, great BG, nice manly perch, well composed, with beautiful color and detail.

#1 is my favorite of the two... but just barely.

Nice work buddy.

Kirk

Thank you Kirk. I appreciate the nice comments.

Real nice poses Dan and nice clean images. You may not have gotten you IF but I think you came away with two winners

Tim

Thank you kindly Tim. I was almost at eye level with this RTH. A few IFs heading my way would have been really sweet. I was ready for it.
