Falco cherrug – Saker Falcon – Sakervalk, originally uploaded by Ed Steenhoek.
The photo above is taken during a photo shoot at falconers Ben and Marijke de Keijzer (Netherlands) with nature photographer Steven Ruiter.
On Flickr, this is probably my best photo yet. It’s ranked 1st (so far) on views and is both commented on as well as marked as someone’s favorite.
It has been a surprise to me how well the birds of prey shots are viewed. Apperently there is a serious interest in tese kind of photo’s. I just didn’t know.
This photo shoot was my first ever with Steven and with birds of prey. Steven provided very useful guidance. Still a second time around, I would most likely improve. Especially when these birds are flying. More about that in a later blog.
