Did Someone Say Dinner? by lennycarl08, on Flickr

That long-eared owl really hung around a long time yesterday and encouraged me to take many pictures of him, in the falling snow. I think that this is my best portrait shot:

Love the 5D MkIV. This was at ISO 3200 and cleaned up very nicely, I think.

Great, night shot.

It's amazing what we can do with today's sensors and NR help from the likes of DxO's PRIME. We have incredible freedom compared to just a couple of years ago.

Hawk in Flight #58 by lennycarl08, on Flickr

dcstep · 01-13-2017, 10:13 PM

Beautiful hawk, Ed.

M_Six · 01-13-2017, 10:51 PM

Great shots, Ed, DC, and Dmitriy. Stellar stuff.

Itsed65 · 01-13-2017, 11:09 PM

Thanks guys! It's funny, I overlooked this red-tail series at first, because I ended up catching the bald eagles that day and was so excited with those that I didn't notice these at first.

Thanks guys. Ed, love that last hawk shot, wow.

Dave, yeah I am happy I got Dx0 11 ... it did not work for the one shot I wanted to use it for, but has worked awesome pretty much in all other instances. Have not used flash in a really long time since getting my 6D.

A juvenile bald eagle took three-passes at a fish and then this adult swept in and grabbed it:

Was glad to see the recent storms filled up the dry marsh at a local park here. Didn't take long for the ducks to notice.

Nice shot, Ed. I'll bet those trees don't normally have water over their roots.
