Bird Photography Weekly #127

Quite a few photo opportunities this past weekend, but I seem to have been getting the most feedback from this series of Peregrine Falcons that we photographed Friday evening at Gloucester City Hall.

"Peregrine Falcon - Falco peregrinus

Great shots, Christopher! I especially love that second one, with the falcon soaring directly overhead. Nice detail!

Weird, I have exactly the same shots, except for the "in focus" and "nicely exposed" aspects.

Great shots, and thanks for a great weekend. One day I hope to make it out there in warmer weather, when I'm not shivering so much!

Love the photos dude. I have several trips to Raynham coming in late Feb and March potentially. I'll let you know. I owe you a beer.

Christopher said...

Thanks Kyle!!
Mike, a little playing in photoshop does help out my pics! You'll def have to make it back here in warmer times.
Patrick - cool, I'm looking forward to a chance to catch up and grab a beer or two, when your schedule permits!

As you can see, we have had another Gloucester Schooner lose a main mast in a blow.

Super shots Christopher! I agree with Kyle, the fly over is amazing.

Amazing shots, Christopher, of the peregrine falcons sitting on the weathervane. They seem to know what becomes them! I also love the overhead shot and the one with the bird sitting on the old shingled roof - nice detail and color.
