What a great series presented here, Charles. I love the rich colors, the focus is spot on, and wonderful details. I wish we had such beautiful birds in the wild where I live.... you are truly blessed!

Great series. Love the BW shot very much.

Thank you so much for the nice words, Luka! It's been quite awhile since I've had the opportunity to get out shooting so I took a couple of days off from work and my Golden and I took a road trip around the State of Wisconsin looking for a variety of scenes to capture. We had a great time
Thanks again,
Don

Rob, thank you very much With the D850 and 70-200E the combo is awesome. Just AF-C and d9. The lighting was late afternoon and very low so I needed to capture the action. I thought of using the 105E but it is not as fast and dynamic as the 70-200E. The other real strength of the 70-200E is its VR of 4 1/2 stops when you need going low light even though you have f2.8 With the 70-200E you have similar compression at 200mm as the 105E

Thank you for posting this excellent series.... I always enjoy seeing the fall colors, but especially love seeing the various perspectives from using several focal lengths on the same subject.

Don,
Thank you very much for your kind words. After all these years, I am still just studying what perspective, focal length, composition gives the best justice to a beautiful scenery in front of me. Much to learn.

That is one of the things I love most about photography. It is always a work in progress, something that we can continually learn and grow with, no matter how long we've been at it or how much experience we have. The key is to always appreciate where we are "in the moment".

Grundtvig's Church (Danish: Grundtvigs Kirke) is located in the Bispebjerg district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It is a rare example of expressionist church architecture. Due to its unusual appearance, it is one of the best known churches in the city.

Charles... The shot of Alex on the swing on page 126 is one of your very best, a near perfect photo in every way!
Don... I love the winding road shot on pg. 126. Simply outstanding! Was this taken somewhere in Door County? Years back when I was in Sister Bay, I tried to locate this road but couldn't find it.

Thank you very much Bill for your kind words Yes the 70-200E is such a versatile lens and often overlooked when you are doing a portrait shoot and you have the 105E alongside. In fact the 70-200E often is a much better choice where there is any movement or action and flexible framing needed.
