    Louie these like all your shots are top notch. It was a fun but frustrating morning. Lots of flight action but not much fish grabbing. We did get one osprey fishing after you left but it was a long ways off so you did not miss much. Fun times none the less.

    These are great! I especially like the second osprey image, that frozen-moment-in-time aspect is very cool.

    Good stuff, Louie!

    I agree with Jim on the "frustration" part. I saw a lot of fishing action between 5AM and 5:45AM or so, before there was enough light to make it worthwhile. This pattern is certainly annoying ..... :mad: :mad:

    Thanks Jim, it was a fun morning. Hopefully the action isn't winding to and end anytime soon.

    Thanks Andreas, the D3 is truly fantastic. I'm not sure I've got it completely down quite yet on how to get the best out of it, but I'm giving it a galant effort.

    Thanks for taking a look.
