I am not normally a fan of IR but these are all great and importantly work well together.

I am envious as I have never seen a Kingfisher when I had a camera on me.

The third is The stand out one for me due to the colours. I think 1+2 could be easily improved with some selective dodging and burning.

You have quite a bit of green colour fringing on these, A product of the processing perhaps.

Your 80-320 needs to be used with the aperture set to "A" to control it from the body.

Cracking capture and agree with the prop blur

I’d go along with everything said above, but I’m intrigued by the viewpoint of the first one. It’s obviously what makes the shot so effective, but I can’t work out how you got the shot - is there a Pentax drone I don’t know about?
Haha, no drone involved. Just a 21mm lens on the K-1 and me standing on another garden chair. I pre-set the exposure and used LV to frame the image. The flippy screen was invaluable here. as I was holding the camera at arms length in front of me.

Capture had to timed precisely to avoid Rio or Ripley photo bombing me !

Two failures ...

Thanks for the comments folks. I will have a play with the mono conversion, and yes John, the 10 to 2 was deliberate. I remember years ago discovering the preponderance of hands on a watch placed in those positions for marketing shots.
