ReplyDeleteNice photos Dusty. After last weekend at the raptor release I realized just how tough it is to get this critters in your lens.
ReplyDeleteI was up at the Dam last Sunday to check it out. Maybe we can meet up there some time and bike around, and get a few photos on the side.
Great shot, Rob-a-doo!!
