More death from above

Stalking birds of prey isn't a lot different from stalking fish underwater; it's all about preparation, positioning and making sure you're ready to seize the moment.

Like most anglers they strike out more often than they score...although I've been lucky enough to find a few birds at the top of their game.

Damn Mike, those are amazing shots you captured.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

Wait till I start shooting underwater...this is the year for the striper eating a lure photo. I'll also be happy with a bass eating an eel or a bunker.

Talent NAHHH .....he just has a good CAMERA !
an inside joke

ABSOLUTELY KIDDING !

you have to ultimate talent of being in the right place at the right time
or second i should say
your a NATURAL nature Stalker !!!!!

question though:
what kind of shutter speed does it take to capture
those photo's that take a tenth of second to happen?

like the shot of the Ospreys talons stretched out to
make the grab is simply AMAZING!

we as humans see it .....but the image is so fleeting
we cannot fully appreciate it until you work your MAGIC
