Maybe the GPS Knows Best

Very nice set, like the direct look of the last shot...keep them coming
 
Sweet... you are getting awesome!
 
The problem I have with them is that I can only "like" them once.
:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
#4 is my favorite.
 
Dang. I stay away for a while and on my return to TPF, Sharon has blossomed into this awesome bird photographer. You've been picking up some really good capability with your experience. Congratulations, and Charlie's nomination was well deserved.

Aww, thanks! :blushing:
I think I *have* improved, though I'll never even touch Kris' skills...that extra 200mm of reach has definitely helped matters. But honestly, these really were more luck than skill. If the GPS hadn't gotten me lost, I would never have found a nest that was so close to the road--these are as good as they are because I was so close, and had to do very little cropping; some of them aren't cropped at all. It really DOES do wonders for the IQ when you don't have to crop the daylights out of your photo! :D

:biglaugh: True story: I actually just BOUGHT one of the jackets! Got it for $10 on clearance! Couldn't believe I was doing it, but I also kinda can't wait to use it. And NO, I am NOT taking pictures of myself in it. :D

Trouble with ground crawling is--when you're a middle-aged, slightly overweight, probably more than slightly under-exercised female--it's not getting down there and crawling that's a problem; it's EVER getting up again!
Between my bad knees and my general out-of-condition shape, I'd probably just have to lie there until the vultures won. :lmao:
