1, 5 & 6 are my favorites. #6 looks like he's surfing with fish as his surfboard. Beautiful captures, Tim.

Thanks for having a look

The first & last are great, almost bookends. But the with the others you get the story.

In the first, the Osprey's "control surfaces" tail & flaps, say it was working a cross wind or an odd angle of attack, but nailed the catch

Dan

Thanks Dan,
You are right, last minute adjustment on final approach

Thanks Larry,
They sure are handsome raptors, I remember the
first time I saw one a few years ago I was so jazzed.

I see nothing wrong with these poses Tim, especially the last 2, beautiful captures....

Thanks Alan,
I guess I explained myself poorly, I'm happy with the shots but
I have a "dream" sequence in my head that one day I hope to achieve.

Larry, thanks for the comments, yes I have noticed it.
Maybe it's for aerodynamics

or to prevent from getting
slapped in the face by a fish tail.

or it could be part of the strategy to sneak in from behind...

Awesome series Tim from start to finish! I really like the pose on the first shot, with the rest coming in a close second, excellent work!

Yeah Tim, stop complaining. The only thing in my head are those darn voices!
