Here are a few BIFs that I have been attempting since the arrival of the K-5. Hope you enjoy. What do you think of the PP on the first one? C&C always welcome.

Hi Susan. BIF are not the easiest captures as we all know.As to the PP on the first I don't know what to say unless the original was there for comparison.--charliezap

I wouldn't like to be the prey this bird is eying... This looks pretty intense.

I like #1 Susan, sort of neutral/mauve colors and the light colored rings and splash are very subtle

You did well Susan indeed BIF are never easy and #1 looked tough with only the sky in the background.

Thanks everyone. By the way, the bird is a Forsters Tern. I am forever leaving the "r" out. For some reason these don't look as sharp as they do on my computer. Me thinks the old eyes are going.
