Peregrine Falcon

Super quality, all, but No. 2 is my favorite

Thank you Tom!

Great set, so sharp and clear. The second one is my favourite as well.

Thank You Graham! I got a new lens and am really happy with the images it produces.

Great shots. Peregrines are making a comeback in the UK and breeding in the cities. However, they still keep their distance. The only one I have ever seen close-up was when I was teaching (in East London). I looked out the window and there was one sat on the roof opposite, just a few yards away! Needless to say I was nowhere near a camera.

Thank you John. Isn't that always the way, the perfect subject and no camera and then when you have the camera at the ready, nothing.

Barbara +1 on what all of them said - one of my favorite birds, very well captured here.

I love how you have captured the eyes very well...annoyingly, when I got myself another copy of your post to look at your images again just to study your composition, they are elongated. I can't have it all, eh? You have gone a long way in such a short time. I wish I can be the same as you with my macro stuffs as well, but unfortunately, there is only one Barbara....with that kind of speed learning... I have a lot of catching up to do...
