What a great set. The Kingfisher pics are really pretty special to my mind - sharp, well composed and good DOF. Well worth the effort I would say. Of the wide angles, numbers 6 and 7 look like something from the American west. They have a great feel to them.

Top work!

Wowwwwwww!!!!!!! No. 3 for me but what an amazing bunch of shots. Well done... I can only imagine the boredom waiting for these and the temptation to give up.

I don't think you need to put 'Kingfisher' on the shots... there's really no doubt

Lovely shots of the kingfisher. Excellent. Very envious....

Ooooooooooooooooooh. Nice. Why can't I take photos like that?

EM

10 hours well spent, excellent work

As above, a great set and the results justify the effort.

Best regards

Brill set well done.

nice kingfisher, well done!

All very good, but I particularly like No: 4

great set. I like no 4 great capture there! but i think it wasnt as sharp as no 1 or 2
and 8, the sky and cloud are great

Nipper, those Kingfisher pictures have me green with envy. Well done mate. As for 10 hours, thats nothing. I've done about 40 hours in the last 3 weeks, and got nothing like this

Can only agree with others. 10 hours is a long time but VERY productive, very impressive- I spend 91/2 hours at work most days- if only I was as productive.

Love #4- is it cropped and by how much?

I guess the landscapes offered a little relief from your pursuit of the Kingfisher shot- they are also interesting- I sense a definate common theme in PP but I like it (although I don't like the text on the Kingfisher shots).

Superb set Nipper ! Just great ! Though I have to say I couldn't find the little buggers in #5 thru #8 !!

Very good set, re the wide shots, just wish I could get my Sigma 10-20mm, to behave like that.
No 5, is my favourite, that’s not to exclude the Kingfisher though.


Take care.
