You will probably never top that first shot! But you are too young to retire.

I've lurked on Fred Miranda for a while - mainly nosing at the m43 forum - but I made an account specifically to say that the puma and guanaco image is exemplary. Fortunate timing meeting photographic skill. Very impressed, very envious 😄

Javier VERY WELL DONE!

The puma and guanaco action are what we all dream about getting shot of!

We have been traveling 4 times now with Trogon Photo Tours and have been pleased. Perhaps in the future, scheduling will work to travel with you.

Keep up the awesome work, images to be proud of.

The first one is absolutely sick action, but can benefit from some shading and grading of the light in post. Perhaps I am the exception, but when I look at it my eye tends to wander.

The grebe on the other side is the diametrical opposite. Zero action but the light is perfect - bright where it needs to be, dark elsewhere. Whether this as actual light or the result of skilled PP is immaterial (to me).

The widgeons are amazing too. I typically don't like duck shots because they are either the duck floating or flexing its wings after a bath.

Wow, Javier!

Another impressive series of yours. They’re all great, but the first one certainly takes the crown. I guess that’s exactly what they mean when they say “being at the right place at the right time” (and being prepared!). Congrats and thanks for sharing,

Samureye


Thank you very much for your kind words, greetings from South America

Thank you for sharing! I am new to wildlife photography and these are so inspiring. Do you need a tripod to get these shots with the 600mm?
