Thanks so much John, yes these birds are so much fun to photograph.
Position is flat on my stomach for a couple of hours.

What a gorgeous series Kirk. Wonderful low angle, excellent use of light. There are no favourites for me - they are all excellent.

Really appreciate the very gracious words Alan, so glad you enjoyed the set.

Love those low angles. I take it you're not in your suit when taking these!! #1 is super, but #7 blows it away and definitely should be on your wall in large size. Those are such great birds. I'm jealous. Don
Really appreciate the very kind words Don.
No suit needed... just a yoga mat... which could be a lot thicker now that I think about it.

Loving the water action on the Avo's buddy and the last frame better find a spot on the wall
Amazing detail in these Kirk and your techs are impressive as always! Clarity of #3 is mind blowing and the light for the opener is so fine bro!!!
Another outstanding series from the "pond" with some of the best stuff I've seen on the board this year
Tom
Humble thanks for the very gracious words my friend.
2 recent tips from you and Karl really helped my PP to a new level which produces MUCH richer images... HUGE thanks Tom.
Hopefully the forum will endure the many images to come as I camp out at this spot over the next few months.
Thanks again Tom, most appreciated.
images as clean as these with no distracting elements make me jealous! I'm ready to photograph shore birds at Quivira now after looking at these... Awesome job, Kirk! -Mike
