We just got back from Utah.

Here is a friendly Osprey.

For those who are interested, this was shot with a Canon R5, RF 100-500mm lens at 500mm, 1/3200sec, F/8, ISO 1600, full image stabilization, processed with Snapseed.

More pics to come soon.

Very nice composition - hardware on pole adds perspective. Hand held?

Yes, handheld. I rarely use tripods, only if I have to.

The image stabilization on the R5 is amazing.

This wasn't even the raw file. I processed the jpeg with Snapseed on my phone.

one who has the good eye, employing top of the line equipment with a view to eye-catching, mesmerizing photographics. In other words "representing nature and human beings with the exactness of a photograph."

Like You.
