WOW Regandon      - one can see this is a professional photography. I especially love those long exposition waterfalls and birds of course. Exceptional sharpness and colors. It's obvious that you use very capable camera and lenses. What camera/gear areyou using?

I have just bought my first DSLR camera Canon 50D - and here are some of my bird-nature shots (with my standard (t. i. - the cheapest) lens  ) - far from your quality but still...











Hope that pics are not to big.

Sorry if I've posted to many.

I wish you'd post more!  These are super, please post as many as you like.  I love nature pics, and yours are as good as any I've seen, maybe better.  Excellent post, thanks for sharing!

Deagle74, Some of these photos were shot back a few years back with a Nikon D70s and Nikon D2X, D2H and the Nikon D200. I now shoot Canon only, and I shoot with a Canon 5D and Mk-III. When I shoot Nikon, I used Nikon's 24-70mmVR, 70-200mm VR, Sigma 80-400mm and 300mm, and the Nikon 400mm and 600mm. With my Canon set-up, I use the Canon 400mm-L, and the 70-200mm-L, 24-105mm-L. If you look at the EXIF info. you see will which camera was used and at what date the photo was taken. You also do very nice photography.

Thanks, I will post more later today.

I have my great great grandmother's Kodak Brownie that she bought in 1915, even have the receipt and quite a few of the photographs it took.  I am still amazed that a camera from almost a hundred years ago took such good photos.  It takes some kind of 60mm film that can be bought, but of course is not cheap, but sometime I want to take some pictures with it just to see what it can still do.

BTW all of you having posted photographs above, very nice, like especially the bird subjects - those are really fascinating and hard to shoot.

My photographic skills are nowhere near as good as regandon's, but I thought I'd share this with you. This was taken in the Colorado National Monument near Grand Junction. Looking east, the Grand Valley is about a 1/2 mile below in the distance. This rock formation reminds me of a pioneer family.

This shot was taken in northwest Colorado near Dinosaur National Park. I liked the way the colors formed stark boundaries against one another.

Very nice photos.

The photo of the duck with his leg held up, I titled it as follows: He should have eat the bread and left the beans alone.

Small birds I love to photograph. They are a lot harder to photograph than the larger ones.
