Awesome timing Alfred to get this wonderful and unique behavioral image. The action in this is outstanding as well as the color ,lighting and composition. Just beautiful !!! Love it !

[Michael Pancier]

Simply fantastic action Alfred. Trying to one up with Mrs. and her snowy's fighting?

:p

[D. Robert Franz]

Very nice action here Al. Wish I could have been there....

[Fabs Forns]

Wasn't that amazing? And it happened soooo fast, I had never seen this either!

[Jim Neiger]

Cool capture, Al. When birds go at it like this, it's very difficult to get a pleasing image. Usually the angles and positions of the birds just don't look good. You have managed to capture a moment where it all comes together nicely. Great action shot.

Jim the one thing that help most of all was using the 200-400 lens I was fairly tight and when the birds took off I was able to zoom out !!! Love that lens .... and btw with the converter is a 1025 weighing just over seven pounds Not bad for HH !!!

Great light and action presented here, Al!

[Arthur Morris]

I love it but wish that the bird with its back to us had its wings spread too. I was too tight with the 400 DO so I am envious of the 200-400. Later and love, artie

Awesome capture but I agree with Arties comment.
