Be careful and don't fall down (because we want to see more )

Gustav you are wonderful. I think we have a lot to learn from you. Bravo. Excellent shots. I would dream to shoot likewise.

DK, kingfisher must be banned from this forum surely. I mean, how do you think us ordinary people with an alpha 700 and a SAL70200f2.8 feel, other than: MUST DO BETTER

(BTW kingfisher, your photographs are outstanding )

Wonderful captures. These birds seem to have a large range. I saw lots of them in Tanzania last June. I didn't catch any in flight.

They're awesome shots, so clear and sharp! Must have been fun standing on a cliff holding a 70-200G lol I imagine they're pretty heavy.

Stunning captures! Everyone else is able to get such beautiful bird shots, so I'm starting to wonder whether my beercan has focus issues (I know these pictures were shot with a superior lens). I just can't seem to resolve the feathers the way I see it done here.

Excellent as always, Gustav.
Beautiful shots, excellent pictures.

Those shots are exceptional, they just about give the viewer vertigo, great work Gustav.
