Better light, same cheapo glass...:-)

Awesome shots Harris. I got to figure out how to get a job down there. :wink:

 

Harris - I love those sandhills, especially since I got to see a couple at Merritt I. You better watch out, your "Osprey King" moniker might have to change if you keep this up.

So what "cheapo glass" did you use? The 300 f/4?

 

Wow very nice!!!

 

Great stuff Harris,


Brought my camera to work today. went on break and did not bring it with me..

GBH sittin there pretty as a picture.......duh

Just haven't brought the camera to work in maybe a month. Soooooooo


As the story goes :<(((((

 

Hi Harris, the images are excellent. It's neat to get a full frame shot of these impressive birds. Way to go.

 

Good shots Harris. Maybe you could send some of those guys up here. GBHs are cool, but I'd like a little variety.

 

Good shots!

I'd hardly call any constant f4 aperture lens an "el cheapo". Afterall, the 200-400VR AND the Nikon 500/600 AFS are both constant f4 aperture! Come to think of it, so is my 12-24!
So, how far away is this Bear Point from the house, and what is "The Island"? :lol: I'll Google it. You know I can't even find my own home down there without a damn map! :wink: (sry if I've asked this 100 times already) :?

 

Nice shots Harris!!!      

 

Thnx, gonna memorize the route

So can be familiar with getting there and back when I do get down there, 1st Thurs in Nov.

 

Thanks Harris,

We've had a pretty busy summer with the new puppy and our two boys keeping us very busy. I am also having some major changes (not for the better at work) and I may need to let some people go which is not a fun thing. The good thing is they still have an opportunity to be picked up by a different company pretty quickly.

I did have some time this past Sunday to do some Macro stuff that I'm still weeding through.

Looking forward for fall!!!!!!!!!!!  

 

Harris, some of these are so close, you must have them feeding out of your hand! Nice captures - I really like the last one. I've only seen these birds once locally. That was at a stop-over on the fall migration. Normally they fly over so high they're just dots in the sky, but you can still hear them - their voices carry for a long way.
