Great set of images. Number three is a beautiful portrait!

 

What a poser!

 

A fine series and what cute fella. Love the third.

 

The are the ultimate sun worshipers and with face directed toward the sun, they can sure strike a lovely pose!

Thanks, Pete. One of my favorite portraits!

You master the light perfectly and that's what it's all about I think and of course the posing

 

Great set and really shows off in B&W.

 

Thanks very much. Brian.

Another fine set Tony, the detail in them is amazing.

 

Agreed. They all look serene, almost as if sleeping.

 

Thanks very much, Dave. Glad you like them.

Thanks, Rob. Yes, they do seem to have their moments of serenity and move in a very graceful and elegant manner when they're in this peaceful state. Wonderful to photograph!

The third one in the first set is very nice Tony...so sharp...you can almost smell the fish on his/her breath...

 

Here's a few more I hope you'll enjoy. Wild, hand-held, no cropping.
