20111222 423 SERIES - Red-tailed Hawk 3r1.jpg

<Two consecutive take-off images. Note, in both images I increased the blue in the sky some as it was actually quite overcast and dreary when these shots were taken.

Top image; Significant increase in the blue of the sky.


Slight increase in the blue of the sky.

These work even better as a sequence than the already great individual images. Very cool display of how they take off from the ground.

Pigeons fly in flocks, hawks fly alone…
So I love birds of prey, they are so fiercely beautiful…
Thank you for your great photos!

Terrific images Hank. Very nice post processing work.

Nice catch of the Take-Off!
Both images look good.
Images with blue sky stand-out; but even the High-Key images are well worth the effort!

Well done Hank!
