I love the light and details of the birds in flight in both of the first two images. The last two images are quite nice but suffer from being posted below the first two

Thanks Alan, the sunset of the last set I posted is what gave me such sublime light for these.

Wow Bob! I would say these are world class! I have never captured cranes looking this well. Love the backlighting, the action and splashes as they are taking off, etc in these.

Congrats on the Featured Nature Image Bob!

Thanks Jim! This was my first time photographing these beautiful birds. I was there again this morning but the light was just awful. Will have to see if I got anything worthwhile.

I love the color on the wings, Bob. Congratulations on the Featured Nature Image.
