Tawny Eagle image that I quite liked..

Yes, the client was very happy.. Sury, I used a barndoors with honeycomb high up on the LHS to light that area.. It took a few shots to get the light spread exactly as we wanted... I tethered onto a large plasma screen so that the client could see as we shot.. I don't often do babies but a family ar...

Yes, with A77.

A less often seen activity of a Malachite Kingfisher.. Regurgitating a pellet.... as we know, they eat fish but don't digest the scales and bones.. I shot at 12 fps and captured these 5 images within those 12 images in a second.. to give you an idea of how quick it happens.. blink and you miss it.. ...

Another Fish Eagle..

Thank you all...

This lady in particular wanted to be able to see the collarbones... she asked me to light it so that they could be seen... the spot on the shoulder is a shadow of her hair..... it is distracting to some but others love it...

Took a series of shots of a cattle egret catching and eating a small snake.. They were quite a distance away so not as sharp as I would like.. http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/RobbieA_0001/DSC00017copy800.jpg http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/RobbieA_0001/DSC00013copy800.jpg http://i302...

Yes, I did light those areas specifically.

I do a fair amount of shooting in studio and have now replaced the A900 with the A99.. these from one of the first studio sessions..

The 90mm macro is a pretty sharp lens... nice sharpness and short DOF.

Some very nice images. My only advice would be for you to make the moving transitions/effects in the direction that the bird is flying. In some slides it's as of the birds are flying backwards.

Thank you Yildiz A few more from recent shoots. Some may also of been on Dyxum. http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/RobbieA_0001/DSC09407copy800a_zps6c3425cf.jpg http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/RobbieA_0001/DSC07496copy800.jpg http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/RobbieA_0001/DSC07059...

Thanks guys. I wasn't sure if you guys also frequent Dyxum. I haven't been here for ages.
