    Thanks everyone for the compliments, but they are beauties to begin with, and that helps. Hard part is getting the eye detail.
    EdG: I am shooting with my new 300mm F2.8L glass. This is one of Canons sharpest lenses and handles a 1.4X TC very well, and quite passable even with a 2X. Definitely an excellent choice IMO, my new favourite lens. Then again, I am off to get the new 100m f2.8L IS macro today, so who knows.

    Ouch, sounds like some serious coin being dropped - but the images show the quality of the tool, as well as the skill of the eye.

    Tree swallows, one of my favorite birds. For some reason they remind me of flying angels. Beautiful captures Hillbillygirl - jimmy

    Thanks JJJ. I also love seeing these birds in flight. The barn swallows just showed up today, so hopefully get some in-flights over the ponds.
