Hi Monte, Looks like something caught this Falcon's eye and he is determined to get it. Great timing and comp Take care

 

Very nice capture. Love the feeling of the action here.

I just add 'Superb shooting angle' to the high quality capture...In fact high class presentation as usual, a real dice roller...Regards, El

Just excellent, Monte! This is one of my favorites of yours. I love the angle, the colors and the way you captured the feathers splayed out so beautifully! Superb!

 

Best regards,

Excelente el momento captado Monte. Felicidades. Max.

Another excellent shot Monte,

I have seen these guys hide in the rocks and then dive down on the sand, not sure what they are after. I think the rock works in this shot as it's a part of the habitat but I'd recolor the white strip on the top blue and merge it with the rest of BG, it's a bit distracting from the bird. Excellent detail and pose, congrats.

Say Monte! You're really gettin' the hang of this!! The signature of the Peregine...the sharp dive!! Beautifully caught here and with your signature too...exquisite focus!!

Nice POV and wing and tail position, good feather detail too. Was this just after take off?

Fabulous capture here Monte. Perfect lighting; perfectly out of focus background with nice color contrast; tack-sharp; great detail; eye-pleasing composition. Regards, Gary

Eric, it was just after take off. She looked like she was going to make a move, so I raised camera and fired as she took off. Usually this would be a tripod shot, but got lucky on this one.

So unique and beautiful! You captured a perfect moment. Just my opinion, the rock is a bit distracting from the bird. Stunning shot. Best regards, Linh Dinh

Did you photograph this while rock climbing? Very unique pose, I like the wing pose and fanned out tail feathers. Excellent work as always.

Monte, 7/7a

excellent photo monte.

Monte...A kite without strings...Love the tail feathers and wing span....Great work...Marjorie

Beautiful bird and capture of it. Wonderful display of the wing span. I like the perspective also. Well seen and presented! Take care, Leslie

Super shot and POV angle to get this shot, Great detail and quality.

Perfect timing Monte! This spread-wing spread-tail position is awesome, could not be better.
