Carole,

First of all...congratulations on being selected for the "Last Frame" in the May Outdoor Photographer magazine. This photo led me to your portfolio and I'm glad it did. You have a great eye for composition and a keen sense of timing. Outstanding photos!

Regards,

Robert

Jerry, great shot. Good to see you posting here again.

Just when I thought it couldn't be better, you come up with an outstanding photo like this.

Monte, this photo is outstanding. It doesn't get any better than this!

March 15, 2008

Well composed, great timing, nice background.

Nice shot Monte. I like the angle and the details on the far wingtip and tail.

Monte, another great photo. Were you manually focusing or was the autofocus following the skimmer?

March 6, 2008

Well...I guess I should've figured that. Being an aircraft maintenance tech, I see those sorts of manufacturer/modification relationships come and go all the time. Although I don't really get involved much with single engine recips too much. Nice photo nonetheless. Keep up the nice work!

Dan, This is an outstanding shot. You should send it off to the Mooney Aircraft Company for marketing.

Nice photo. I agree with Monte, looks like a Red Shouldered Hawk.

Nice catch...for both you and the bird! I hope that comment above isn't implying that you faked this photo.

Now that's a million dollar view.

NICE!!! I can almost hear the roar of those Pratts! Well captured.

Great perspective of an awesome machine! I like the crop with the exception of the cut-off propeller blade.

Nice one Monte. Looks like you woke him up. The fill flash is a nice effect.

February 25, 2008

Still a great photo. I wish I had taken it.

February 24, 2008

Great shot, David. Agree with Monte about the tail.

February 16, 2008

Very sharp photo. Nice capture.

Nice story along with the photo. What a nice mother she is! About the photo...did you crop this or is this full frame? If it's cropped, I think it's a little too tight at the top. Great moment though.

Monte, this is just beautiful. All parts of the bird are tack sharp.

I wouldn't make too much of a change. It's a nice photo as it is.

January 27, 2008

Very nice composition. Appears a little dark though. Maybe it's my monitor. I believe this is some type of titmouse.

Nice one, Don. I think I would have tried it in vertical though to try to eliminate that branch on the left. The fact that it's also in focus is just slightly distracting.
