I was blessed to witness and photograph this young Osprey diving for the fish (yeah, we do not see this bird everyday here). 5D3 at 700mm, handheld.

If I don't get the shots I want with the gear I have, the only optics I need to examine is the mirror on the bathroom wall. The root cause will be there.

Excellent fishing series. Always like watching the younger ones learning the ropes...this one looks like it knows what it's doing.

You have really done well in nailing the focus and exposure on these; simply outstanding.

Awesome series, thanks for sharing!

That's one heavy combo, and for doing all of those hand held you deserve a beer!

Great series. Good work staying in focus. When they dive they're moving pretty fast.
