Tony,

Oh Mr Tim

I am thinking really sweet shots buddy. I really like the angle on #1 showing the wing tops and the tilt as well as the head-up look with eyes
#2......I paused..........enjoyed the total committment plunge, the splash itself and the anticipation of the next frame....................
HOLY GRAIL it worked! Congrats on the series capture and keeping wingtips in check and the celebratory fly by last image!

1st and last shots are killer. Not sure what picture you had in your head but these stunning. Any sighting of that immature bald eagle?

Very nice set For usTim, even if it is lacking something for you. #2 probably doesn't make sense without 1 and 3 but it is a very cool shot. I love it.

Holy Crap! Tim, outstanding. I guess it's good that your are never completely satisfied with your work, but dang, these are amazing. Congrats on one of the finest holy grail sequences I've seen.

Tim,

Fanstastic shots! Have you noticed that Ospreys always point the fishes head toward the front?

Nice job,

Larry

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

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
