Some variety seen recently:


#1
The infamous Mountlake Fill KF

Hooooweeee my friend, bout time you opened up and posted a few.
Love number 1 and 2! The detail in 5 is awesome, great little "D". The Shrike is stunning, love that pose! And the Eagles, wow, the Eagles.....nuff said
Thanks for again making me feel totally inept and raising the bar once again

This my friend is one fine representation of nature photography! The opener KF is just saweeeeet Each one Tom is masterful IMO though those eagle shots are over the top. #11 and #12 are captivating!

Excellent sir
Karl

Another beautiful set Tom. My fav are 1, 5, 7, 8 and 11 but all are very nicely done as usual.
Dan

Yo Tom i'm glad someone finally nailed dat bastard KF at the fill he had it coming Me & Tim chase him every year and everytime he wins!
Awesome dof on that jay
The chickadee is not sharp enough...I want more
Top prize goes to those BE shots!! holy cr@p they look so 3D! it must be something in ur PP workflow

Great job with the KF Tom I believe the second shot is the best of the series. I also like the first one , but to me that trunk takes some away from the image. Never the less it shows your skill and the capabilities of the MkIII to focus track the subjects The other pics look great as well with fine exposure and nice detail. My only pick would be the Dee looking a bit over-sharpened on my monitor. The Eagle series is fantastic I never get tired to look at those images.

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

Wow, awesome series, beautiful detail and colors......

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

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

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

Congrauts on nailing the little bugger KF. The light on those eagle is amazing. Bruce

Gasp!!!! Oh My! Gasp!!! .... That's was my reaction to all of these, Tom

Those KF shots are to die for and then it just got better from there.

More of Ken's Eagle It has my name on it now - love it

Ken

Hi Socrate
Thanks so much for the compliments, I appreciate it tremedously!!
The BCC does look a tad on the sharp side and it may be time to re-cal my monitor, thanks for pointing it out Sir I'm thrilled you like the Eagle shots and I'm forcing myself not to process any more for fear of boring you guys to death

Tom
