I don't know if I have the link to the interview done by Austin Texas Television...public TV of Howard Cheek. He says in his interview exactly the same things you disclose in your technique....oooops..OK I took a break and found it:

This is my favorite bird Asbed...I have told the story many times...but I have never seen one caught in flight, beyond yours. well done in your very special talent!
Bob

Just keep on pumping them out Nick. I learn from you...so you are my fav teacher in this area of birds...they are beyond me now, so I leave it up to my gazing eyes and wishful thinking...Very nice1
Bob

An award winner Silvio! This one is very special and all the harder to accomplish in vertical...how surprising. your talents shall outlive me1
Bob

When I think of Swiss..I think of chocolate and skiing...so you always bring another area of delight...something people look through and over but do not see becuase they are focused on other things...Very nicely done Anne in your very special way.
Bob

Now that is a picture there guy...and if I didn't have the "eye of the eagle" I would have thought it to be American Bald...you are quite the man behind the long lens.....400mm and still not one problem..a pro you are!
Bob

It is His gift which leaves you in a perilous State of war, strife and such...all to photograph beyond that and into the natural world...You disarm the world with your images! that brings peace. We need many more peoples like you!

I am very impressed a the image. What catches my eye and makes me wonder is the trees....Are they decayed yet not dropped leaves? what kind are they? I have never seen an image suite like this one...It shows an abnormal tree line almost as if at one time some fire had come through. Very good story telling image!
bob

Times like these I wish I had that eye of youth and camera which I was able to lug around. Such a beautiful shot. It indeed reminds me of the best of times in photography. Very well done...Have a blessed Day!

What a lucky catch this one was one!!..My dad and I used to go there to get brine shrimp in order to feed dads tropical fish....there was an old mill and waterwheel not far. Very nicely seen. I am glad parts of Ohio are retaining their rich history...and that good photographers take the time to register them!
