3. What a great shot, my dear Bonhomme Richard!

Did you have the lens all the way out to 600mm?

Your photo is just gorgeous!

[Bonhomme Richard]

4. Thanks. Yes....

Out to 600mm. I don't want to stress the birds though i am sure they are used to me by now.

7. Excellent!

Consider submitting to National Wildlife Magazine Photography Contest.

[Bonhomme Richard]

8. Thanks.

I really don't have any interest in entering contest. My focus is to take the photos and write with end goal of being published in a magazine and I actually have a "very small" article in the upcoming issue of a state wildlife magazine. LOL, you have to start somewhere and the editor likes my writing. The photos will accompany the articles. I have a friend who has made his living doing wildlife photography for 40 years and he said the only way to make any money is to write. As it turns out I enjoy the writing. Who knew?

9. The second photo, the look on her face. Is that all you brought?

Women ! Ya never can please them. The first photo is where she is off getting her own fish.

Anyway, great photos.














Yes, Martha, Its sarcasm.

10. I am in awe

Not only of your photography, but the magnificence of this wonderful bird.

It boggles my mind how they could swoop down and catch a fish!

11. Serious question, how are you liking the Tamron lens?

I might have to get a 600 for fires\riots. I wish I were kidding, and far from in that particular order

[Bonhomme Richard]

12. I like it. I have gotten some......

great shots with it. Usually I hand hold it. I don't think you can beat it for the price but one caveat...I shoot a Nikon and every once in a while the auto focus doesn't work and I am not the only one. I just live with it and every so often I disconnect the lens, re-attach and all is well. I don't know if that is an issue with a Canon.

13. I use a D810 as well

I am using Nikon glass and well. I like lit but the price point for at least a 400 lens is a tad rich for my blood

14. Lucky!

So much going on and to look at. Great shot!

15. Doesn't look bald to me

Must be wearing a white toupee.
