    This is a pair of Peregrine siblings soaring over the Pacific from a few months ago.

    Thanks for looking.

    WOW! Double trouble. Pretty impressive to get both sharp.
    Love the look on the bottom falcon's face/eye.
    Comp is unusual but I like it.

    Hi Tim, great double, and love the eye contact from the lower Peregrine. I do like the symmetrical flight poses, and where were you standing to have captured these two with the ocean far below.

    Very nice indeed, especially getting the birds so close to one another in the frame. Visually reinforces the relationship between the two. I guess this could be cropped a number of different ways and I think the strength of the subjects, IQ and background would make it hard to pick one over another.

    Thanks so much Stu, I was standing cliffside with about a one hundred foot drop or so, lucky for us there is a safety rail along the edge.

    Pretty cool they look like fighter jets. Really like the blue background.

    Definitely a cool shot Tim, having the 2 almost identical poses works really well, especially with the leading bird having that extra little head turn
