Oh, wow! What an amazing closeup. Huge fav. I'm also following an osprey family, but never in a million years would be able to get a shot like this one. Congratulations!
@timandelke yes, i agree elke! there's a fine line between getting the pick and imposing on the bird. If Barry gets a new camera as planned, he'll have a lens to handle these shots in a less invasive manner. Having said that, i'm very happy with the 42x zoom on my little camera! i'd have bought it just for that alone. The HD movies are pretty cool too, all in such a small package. Thanks so much for your ongoing support. I love your shots and am always amazed at your creative captions.
@russianblue yes, so far so good. i still like the old one for macro's but it's probably because i'm not using the new correctly for that part ... need to do some more reading ... ;-)
