So I got up at 5:30 am Easter Morning to meet up with a friend who had something he wanted to share with me.

Those talons would snatch my yorkie up in a flash.

Nice photos.

 

wow!
beautiful shots!

 

Amazing shots! Is that a headless fish he's clinging to?

 

That is the female, the male does the fishing and eats the head. Then brings the rest back to the nest for the female to eat.

 

awesome pics Jup! Is there any type of photography you dont do?

 

Thanks!!

People, I don't to well with it.

 

That first shot is amazing. I only wish I could see the entire bird in flight...never the less a great capture.

And come to think of it...yeah you don't post much with people...practice that!

 

I dont do people either. Only time Ive ever done that was a friends 9 month old daughter

 

Yeah...Im typically not one for people either (aside from my own kids)

But I'm always told I do a great job at catching slices of life when I do.

 

Using 300mm 2.8 with 2.0 TC, I'll do some soon, but it will just be my kids baseball team playing.

 

Yep. Still jealous!


Gorgeous work, J.

 

I browsed through your flickr albums earlier today. That's quite a collection of photos you've made. Very nice work.

Cameras really are your crack.

 

^^^ Thank YOu!!

 

Impressive Solo! What shuuter speed did you use, also, what vantage point did you have to capture the nests shots?

 

nice set!

 

Awesome shots! Looks like it should be in National Geographic!

those talons!

 

Thanks, can't wait to go back.


Most are about 1/3000 or 1/4000 shooting at F/6.3 ISO 800. I was about 50 ft away. The post was about 25ft tall. Was shooting cropped body with 300mm with 2xTC.

 

Awesomeness!

 

those are some bad ass pictures.
