Nice pair Ian (y)
I prefer #2 though

Kudos for these Ian, I tried at weyhill hawk conservancy and they were just sooooo fast (y)
 
Cool (y)
 
Excellent set Ian... (y) ... lovely to see these taken so well... :D ... I take it from the scenery they are not your locals... ;)

You need to get closer to them Ian.

:LOL::LOL: was just what i was thinking, ive seen that Ian taking tack sharp pics with his 600 + 1.4 convertor from his car window so thought i would try it at a Osprey site i know. When i got there there was one Osprey with a fish on a tree and two otheres flying around took loads of shots and kept about 3 :bang:
 
:clap: Very nice wild shots Ian! I was just browsing last night thinking you hadn't posted any shots for a while. Nice to find theses here today :D

P.S There was a male Hen Harrier at Frampton yesterday (Saturday). Much too fast for me though.
 
Dayum Ian!... I know how much you love these birds, but two great shots and you go and post 'em under-exposed! ;)

Both great mate, but I love the profile and that eye in No2. :clap:
 
Stunning birds, excellent photos. You and CT are masters at bird shooting.

Gary.
 
I had to agree with Phil (purpleclouds) they did look a bit flat, but those modified ones from CT really do show them to there best.

The one with the two is a cracker mind
 
Thanks all for the comments :)

It threw me when Purpleclouds said they were flat, i think we have totally different ideas of what flat is, in my world flat means no contrast and little detail? can see from CT's edits i was a little underexposed, think i might have to re calibrate the screen, although CT's edits look a little bright on my screen, they are definitely an improvement.

CT's edits look spot on (on my calibrated screen)
