Had some free time this past weekend to process a few more vacation picts. Hope you all find these enjoyable

These were taken from a boat across the bow using the "_____ bag"

Good ones, Chad! Excellent light and water-level perspective. Hope your camera didn't end-up In The Drink in taking these...

Best Wishes,
Steve

Very impressive. I always find birds with white feathers extremely hard to expose for properly. You've done a great job here.

Nice shots Chad! Love the eyes on these guys.

J

Really nice shots. And great detail in the white also

Well you sure came back with a bang Mr Chad To look at a picture and like it is one thing, to stop and study the picure is a 'Great' thing, #2 has me studying Technically sensational IMOHO! Low and slow, very very nice.

Karl

Wow... what stunning detail.... that Nikon is really doing a great job for ya Chad... beauties

The second one is my pick...

T

Very nice Chad, great detail. The second one is my pick as well.

Chad ignore Karl, he must be on a bender! Great stuff, yes, Karl is right, 2 is sensational.

Tim

Glad you spend more time on whites and did a neat processing. Nice captures. Love them very much.

Chad,

stunning - beautiful detail, colors & sharpness. Which we all know is hard with a white bird - - great shots.

Love them

Lil

Great job on these Chad... love those eyes.

Simply stunning Chad, the detail, the light, the composition!
Tried, but could not pick between them.
Well done!
Martin

Wow!!!! Spectacular Chad.

Ted

Stunning!

Fantastic exposure on these, Chad. I enjoyed them!

Jenna

Great detail in there

These are fantastic - some of the best posted here on FM, especially for a bird with a lot of white. The details in the whites is super. Thanks for sharing these!

# 2 is my fave

Well executed shots. Spot on exposure and sharpness.

They are both very nice shots, Chad, with the second being my favorite. Great colors and detail. Man, that beak is huge. As somebody said, their beak can hold more than their belly can.

P.S.I don't see any "nuptial tubercle" bump on the beack, so I gather Anthony wasn't with you.

Terrific shots, Chad!! Great lighting and excellent detail.

Frank

stunning shots Chad! Nice low angle work!

Nope nothing got wet ... Ok maybe Ant did, he was on the front of the boat when motoring around, it was kinda bow heavy Thanks!

I like the second shot the best also, they were both close in the running to get printed, but the second is taking the lead. Thank you!
