American Crow

Very nicely photographed.
Black and detail don't fall in your lap. You've eked out the detail here so beautifully.

Beautiful. Details of the plumage really are amazing.

Wood and slats

Fantastic photo.
Love the detail in the wings and your moment of capture has made this rather special IMO.
Very nice

Nice one, Mike.

Did you get a new body?

Thanks Phil...I got my 1DXii a few months back. As far as my new body is concerned...yes, I've gained a few pounds lately, so I'd have to say it is sort of new.

Another great crow shot, Mike!

Absolutely wonderful, Shalu. Ya know what I think? I think the more you stack the TC's, the sharper your images get. :mrgreen:

Thank you very much, Mike! Good point, I am ordering two more TCs to stack now :-P :lol:

That is a crack'in shot, Shalu. But are you sure you didn't rotate that image 90 degrees to make it look as though the tern is diving?
:-P You know I'm kidding, of course. :-D

Marvelous shot, Mike. Incomers like this are difficult to get sharp focus on. This one is really nicely done.
