The Tamron 90mm is quickly becoming a favorite lens of mine

Wow, now that's a bit special, well done.

That is a really cool shot, well done.

Fantastic capture!

Nicely captured. Did you have to crop it or was he that close?

Thanks... I did have to crop it. He was the height of the telephone pole plus a few feet away

It's going, it's going... "click" - nope didn't get away this time! Well captured, as it is easy to miss this sort of shot.

Indeed it is easy to miss this sort of shot. I do it all the time.

Great capture.

Tony

Can't tell you how many of these shots I missed and the birds were closer, low light.... Aghh.

Thanks... I have been practicing getting a bird in flight and in the frame at the same time

Nice shot of a Eastern Blue Bird, thanks for posting it.

zztopd · 02-16-2014, 09:48 PM

Absolutely great.

**Bruce Clark** · 02-17-2014, 04:38 AM

Timing is everything. Well done.

daacon · 02-17-2014, 04:51 AM

BIF nailed well done.

Well, if you don't click the shutter a bunch of times, you won't ever get great photos like this.

It has a pleasant softness about it, and the background colors and saturation are a great complement to the bluebird. I'd be very happy with that shot.
