You got some real good ones, Louie. And, I agree with Doug. The threesome is outstanding. Something I never noticed before is the feet tucked up close to the body. I'm used to them trailing out back.

Amazing photos, Louie.
Love the composition and the light you've captured in there too.

This is a terrific set Louie. I love the light and contrast of the first and the third's symmetry is incredible

Your lead shot is simple awesome with its color and lighting, but the triplet is gorgeous - you could not have caught that better.......print it hang it on your wall!

Louie, these are an absolute treat to my eyes! Some of the finest IF shots on the Sandy's I have seen in a long while. That opener shot is gorgeous, what fabulous light and pleasing details on the under wings. #2 in tight formation is a treat, #3 triple crown fantastic

and the last I love the form and drama in color.

Excellent and I gave you a vote

Thanks very much Rex, sometimes you get lucky and capture a few unique poses.

Thanks Bobby, I actually didn't realize that I had caught that shot until reviewing my images on my PC.

Beautiful cranes, Louie. #3 is a wall hanger for me. #1 is special; I have never seen a crane tucks its legs like that during flying.
