Nice kestrel, Mike! I have yet to get a close shot of the kestrel. They were always too far for me.

Incredible angle! I've never seen a shot that low!

Lame-Duck wrote in post #18801683 (external link)
That's an amazing shot, Vassilis. Your camera angle is so low, that it looks like you are partially photographing the coot under water (cool looking).

Thank you all ! The best part is that I was sitting comfortably in an overflow channel, with the water surface right at eye/lens level.

Great Blue Heron

Fabulous shot David, a wall hanger.

Stunning shot Sid, these are such an active species.

Thanks Shalu. I couldn't get very close to this one. I had to crop pretty heavily on this shot. Certainly not as nice of a shot as I would have like to have taken.
