I was unexpectedly surprised by what I captured during yesterday's outing. After watching the GBH for about an hour, I thought well nothing much is going to happen here so I was about to leave, when he went into action. This guy did a real dance for me after capturing the fish. After reviewing all of my shots, I don't think he did a flip. Again, not as sharp as I think they should be: D70, 80-400mm 1/640, F6.3 ISO400
Cool shots, Louis! Probably too big of a fish to flip it. Love the 2nd shot--looks like some kind of runway model!
Louis that second shot is pretty funny the GBH is doing the splits. I think I will stop by the park later this afternoon to see if he is around. The last few times I have been there it has been very slow.
Good catches Louis. I like the flight shots of these guys, and especially shots with the fish in the beak. You've got both. :wink: Well done.
Wow, Louis. That second one is a classic! Can't say I've ever seen a bird do something like that. Great captures, all of them!
These are great. I like the pose in the second one. Looks like he is walking down the aisle in a fashion show
Thanks for the comments everyone. I was pretty surprised when I finally looked at what was actually captured. Wished I could have processed them a little better though. Louie
Cool shots, Louis!! I'm with everyone else -- that second shot is unique - haven't seen a GBH do a balancing routine like that before.
