Fantastic capture, Outstanding clarity, lighting, contrast, color, dof, Well Composed and Quite Beautiful, Linda!!! Well Done! Cheers, Glenn. #4727651Wally Orlowsky August 31, 2007
Great catch, Linda. I find that they will sometimes perch for several minutes at a time ... but they certainly are very difficult to catch in flight. #4727689Linda D. Lester August 31, 2007
I didn't see one that perched for that long. It was hard I shot and shot just to get one or two. I would love to find the lazy ones! :) #4727725Shawn Jennings August 31, 2007
Great capture, Linda! Looks just like the ones Judy posted. #4727778JO ANN CLEVELAND August 31, 2007
Great capture! Believe me, they are quick and if I saw one sit for more than 5 seconds, I would think they were sick! About 10 were busy darting in and out at each other!Fantastic Linda, I only got a few too at that shoot!
