Awesome shots Kenny. I'm especially impressed with your numerous shots because around here they don't stay around long enough to allow me to actuate the shutter.

Yes awesome shots. Nova Scotia is on my bucket list. I'd like to see the home of my ancestors.

Beautiful set Kenny, you make me cringe, because I've wanted to get kingfisher shots and they have always eluded me :)

Sweet series. Just me, but I think a little contrast will enhance that beauty!


you're a great friend, but if Zombies chase us, I am tripping you.

Great series Kenny. Given the name of the bird you would think that they would be seen more often with a fish. Yours are among the very few shots I've seen where they have actually caught one.
