I am totally in awe at the amazing bird in flight captures that Ed always seems to find and share with us. They are perfectly clear and always full of expression. I can't wait to see what shows up next. All I can say, is that it is truly an honour to see the master's work. My hat's off to you.

Ed you are the Master of capturing birds in flight. Your pictures are technically brilliant. Pin sharp compositions showing every detail and full of vibrant colours just amazing. They are literally poetry in motion, a delight to behold that displays mother nature at her best.

Ed's got an amazing eye for wildlife, and a an even quicker finger with the shutter. Just make sure you don't get into a shoot-out with him, he's likely the fastest draw north of the 56th parallell. Truly a conscious photographer, his photostream is always worth a look-see!

I do not know why Ed doesn't have pages of testimonials. Anyone spending time on his photostream would be mezmerized by his expertise, especially with his action shots of birds. As an "old birder" I can appreciate the difficulty in producing such wonder. There's a lot to see here, and I highly recommend you take the time to wallow in the splendor. Truly, Ed really has mastered the craft.

If you ever thought it's impossible to shoot many different birds on high quality all the time, then you never saw Eds photostream. It's always a pleasure to see his additions to his stream, as his pictures of birds are really outstanding. And believe it or not, he is taking great shots other than birds very well either, you just have to dig long enough in his stream to find them. :)
