    Ospreys are among my favorite raptors, too, and your photos are really excellent in all respects.

    Joe - these are all fantastic. Amazing sharpness and detail. I especially like the subtle backlighting on the wings

    I love #2 and #4.

    Hello Cliff, thank you for viewing and commenting. Working up the images made me fond of the backlighting, another lesson learned that day.

    Re: The Osprey...

    Another great series, Joe. Looking at the exif's, some of the ISO's seem surprisingly low for the shutter speed and aperture. I wondered if you's used your "white bird" technique and under-exposed the initial images?

    All the best to you both

    Dave
