Hope you don't have vertigo ISv! Nice photos.From today: on the first one a mate displaying in front of the nest... And the "nest" - here we go as a "portrait"! No better angle for the nest - few steps right and I'm in free fall ~10 meters... the bottom is a rock !View attachment 183360View attachment 183361
A really keen bird photographer would have jumped and taken the perfect shot while falling. You just have to practice. Or, perhaps a drone?From today: on the first one a mate displaying in front of the nest... And the "nest" - here we go as a "portrait"! No better angle for the nest - few steps right and I'm in free fall ~10 meters... the bottom is a rock !
My further advice is that when you fall land on your backside so the camera lands on you, a useful technique to master.Thanks Glick and Aaron!
Aaron, I don't think I have a vertigo. I have just the normal fear from heights (and it is not helping to feel confident when on the rocks but for sure helps to survive).
Alan, I may follow your advise next time (the free fall) but it would be a waste of camera and lens . Concerning the drone: I actually was thinking about it...
Really nice. The owl is a cutie.I finally finished going through all my photos from the two weeks in Florida. Here are a few Burrowing Owls from Cape Coral. 7D mkii / EF 500 f4 / 1.4xiii

Nice photos Jeremy! I don't know if it's tired or just has a lot to say. Maybe both!I finally finished going through all my photos from the two weeks in Florida. Here are a few Burrowing Owls from Cape Coral. 7D mkii / EF 500 f4 / 1.4xiii

Nice shot Alan. Usually the only raptors we have around where I live are Cooper's hawks, and they are quite shy. Yesterday I got a shot of Europe's infamous transplant to North America, the Starling. I got a look into the mouth and it was as disgusting as most of us find the rest of the bird. I am sure they have some redeeming quality, my wife and I just haven't found it yet.
