An odd angle but he jumped where expected.

Above was the follow through. If there is no rush most of the time you can anticipate the flight path.

The other times… it’s exactly what you didn’t want them to do.

  1. Wow what an amazing capture. Truly spectacular, I never grow tired I seeing beautiful photographs of nature or seeing nature up close and personal. What a grande display of beauty in motion Ted. Have a blessed day. Love Joni

    1. My pleasure and you are right as my husband and I were able to zoom in on your magnificent photographs this morning and enjoyed looking at your work together. I think we were both floored by the close up of the Barred owl with his claws around the bull frog. Splendid really. I love birds and wildlife and you have a real gift. Blessings to you and your family. Love 💕 Joni

    2. How wonderful to do what you love. What a blessing. I am happy for you and understanding why you are successful, your work is incredible. Hugs Joni
