Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!
Great shots ,what lens are you using ? are you using a strobe ?
Thanks Mike. Appreciate the kind compliment.
No strobe, and was just using a single 580ExII mounted on camera. Was rainy, and cold out, so didn't want to set up multiple flash. Was using a 500mm F4L with a 1.4X TC mounted.
I was quite surprised at the results, but the very overcast skies, and the soft light it produced, helped here.

Loving #3 in this fabulous set. Almost looks like he has no wings. Eye pop superbly. Well done, HBG!

What a great set HBG.
Feel free to make comments on any of my shots.
Fantastic capture and results.So detailed.
Just wonderful, HBG... though I was expecting some trucks!The shimmery colours are beautiful and I think number 2 is my favourite.
