I enjoyed some time at Ridgefield NWR this weekend. Unfortunately, the light did not cooperate a whole lot.

Here are a few of my favorites:


#1 Red Tail Hawk

Sweet series, the portrait of the RTH is fantastic. I like all of the shots, the low light in some adds to the mood, well done!

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the feedback. They were all taken with the 40D/100-400 combo.
