This is one great shot. Super, I love the angel of the bird and how the wings are open straight like that.

I never know what to say any more re images like this, i guess i just sound boring but it is an excellent capture, exposure is spot on, great detail, I'm jealous

Of the three you submitted today, I think this, and the second one have to be my favorite.

Nate, thanks.. I was just commenting on your game farm
journal. I agree it sucks, and would never post an image
as wild that I shot it a controlled environment .. IE zoo or
raptor center.

Sweet photo.

What kind of telephoto lens do you use for these photos?

I'm interested in purchasing the 50D, would you recommend it?

DGAnder In reply to Snowy686 [2009-01-26 04:57:50 +0000 UTC]

I am using a 400 DO F4 IS canon tele. on the 40D.
I haven't shot the 50D, but I'm in love with the 40D.
So I'm guessing the 50D should be at least as good,
with a full 5 meg larger image.

That's a sweet lens, yeah I was wondering what you thought of it since you use the 40D. Yeah ill probably end up getting the 50D.
