...in sunny Florida? Friday was a dreary day for shooting critters.

Except at the end of the day. But even then, the sun got hung-up in a tree while it was trying to set.

Have fun,

Phil

Thanks Mark. The defused light and camera angles were just right plus a little PS magic.

Thanks. Believe it or not, that sunset shot was taken from my front lawn. I was lucky enough to get a whole series from start to finish.

Thanks Stephen. Osprey's are awesome to photograph and one of my favorite critters. I do love to shoot sunsets. I only have around 6,000 images of them...humm, does that mean I'm obsessed?

The first step in the recovery process is to admit that you have a problem. :lol3

Okay Alan, I admit I'm obsessed...and yes, my favorite color is orange.


These are wonderful !!

Thanks Awais, I'm glad you enjoyed them. Half the fun of taking pictures is for my own enjoyment, the other half is when someone else enjoys them.

I reeally like the 2nd one of the osprey and the sunset. The stick/limb in front of the first one is distracting, cutting into the body of the bird.
