Another great set Socrate, such a pleasure to view your work!
Love the light on the GBH in flight, and the detail and pose in # 7.
The snake is really interesting almost hypnotic!
Martin
Thank you, Martin. These GBH shots are part of a series of about 15 consecutive shots taken with the 50D, all in sharp focus. These are the closest ones. I was going to post that whole series but I never did, also because I forgot. Thanks again my friend.

P.S The snake is really interesting almost hypnotic! Isn't that the truth?

Socrate it must be a real pleasure to go over your HD and look at the files you have yet to post! Another fantastic set. The osprey is amazing, so well exposed and close. The gbh in that luscious light also take top honors.
Well done Mr S
Tim
Thanks for the words, Tim . I believe we all take more pictures than we can process Everybody seems to like that Osprey shot taken with the 20D and if I remember correctly that was shot in JPEG because that is how she's got the camera set for. May be I should give my wife the 40D, as an upgrade, and take back the 20D.

Wonderful series Socrate - your bin of unused images is what I would call my best shots. I really like the Willet in #7. The lighting and detail is spectacular. Well, they're all fantastic. Nice job balancing the exposure on the wings in all these.
Thank you, Mark. Nice to hear from you and glad you liked these. I appreciated the words.
Socrate
Well I wonder why you bought a new camera, these are beautiful Socrate.
So any conclusion on the difference in your older equipment and the 7D?
The GB is so well done. Love the environment in it also.
This is another brilliant series, Socrate. If I could get my best stuff to look half as good as your "odds and ends," I will be happy as a photographer.
Some of these are so good that I had to wonder how you ever passed over them to begin with!
#'s 1,2,8 & 9 (that Green Mamba is wicket awesome) are my favorites of this excellent set.

Amazing detail in #1 and I like the composition... Bonus is a Nello from both the Osprey and the fish.
Wonderful light on both 4 and 6 GBH's with very nice detail too.
#7 is my favorite in this nice series Socrate... LOVE the beach setting and the great low angle really put this one over the top for me.
All the rest are done very well... not bad at all for odds and ends.
Kirk
Thanks for your thoughtful comments, Kirk and for your picks.
