Taking off

[MitchP]

Red Tail Hawk caught me with a slow shutter speed! Can I claim it's more art?

Very good shots....

 

[jeffashman]

Wonderful hood ornament shot!

 

[snowbear]

Nice, expecially the first one. My preference would be for a little more DOF on it, though.

 

[John 2]

The first one is exceptional.

These are both wonderful! I like your DOF, and yes, he caught you napping with a slower shutter speed than you usually have.

But a slight bit of motion works great here! He's getting ready to launch.

I agree with Jeff that he kinda struck a "hood ornament" pose in the first one.

Great work!

Thanks everybody! Everybody laughs when I call it my "Hood Ornament Shot"
