    Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park

    I visited the Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park in Florida recently and put these photos of the nature board. I'm putting them here to ask for your comments and suggestions.

    You can find more infor on the park here: http://www.floridastateparks.org/hom...gs/default.cfm It's a little know treasure with some native Floridian species I haven't seen before.

    All photos with Nikon D200 and either Nikon 200mm micro lens or Sigma 50-500.

    Your three bird shots are very good with the first being the strongest. The Big Cat shot suffers a bit in my view from the awkward moment of it going underneath the branch and looking like a silly house cat somewhat. It has a bit of a cuteness factor but not enough to carry it that way and too much for me to take "seriously" Still not bad, but the Bird shots are certainly very good. you have made some great use of that 50-500 Tank of a lens
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    The Bald Eagle is the best. The first is chopped at the feet.

    I think the first bird needs a little PS work on the eyes and I agree the cat could have been in a better position but other than that I like them all. Very good in my book. Well done. A++ on the last one.

    the eagle looks like one of our fore fathers rolling outta bed after a hard night ...I like it.
    Please ask to edit photos and I'll do the same! :thumbsup:
    Thx, Rod

    Your Last bird is my favorite, I like the colors and the pose of the bird. But all your pictures here are very sharp..
