Great shots, if I were nit picking I would say on the first one the focus is not spot on the eye, a lovely shot never the less

Thank you... Actually it's just under the eye.. When your rapid firing, it's very difficult to keep the focus point right on when you 30' away.. Good eye though..

Nice catch Norman. Is that lens still giving you trouble? Did you try those settings?

Thanks Mitch, yes still the same lens and yes I have those settings set in the camera... I took several hundreds of photo's just to get a few I can actually worth with... Not normal when all shots taken on a tripod..
