Osprey with nest twigs

[Paul Burdett]

The Ospreys have been busy collecting nesting materials as well as hunting for fish. Cheers.

Love the BG clouds, EXP with challenging light, view of face and the cargo. Up angle, bird being past you and the challenging light hold it back a little. Love the SH and details. You are killing it with BIF on this rig. TFS and keep them coming.

Thank you David. Yes, not the best light...even at 7am! The sun was behind me...shooting from the viewing platform at this location. Same location the other day was foggy in the morning, but got better to overcast conditions, but then I underexposed the images of the Osprey with a fish. Oh well:w3Cheers.

Paul:

Good critique from David, but the head turn angled back towards us does mitigate the impact of the birds angle somewhat, so I like it. The stick adds interest without over powering the bird, and yes, the clouds always add a lot for me too.

Cheers

Nice and sharp with good detail. The stick is pretty neat looking. Nice to see some clouds in the background.

Thanks so much John and Randy. Feedback always appreciated. Cheers.
