Lovely shots. The light really makes your subject... (show quote)
Thank you and, yes, luck does play a large part but you have to be ready to take advantage.

Attempting to photograph a person or large object in dappled light is very difficult. However, it can be used to our advantage if we are willing to move or wait for the light or subject to move. Patience is often the missing ingredient in a photo being ho-hum or dramatic. I often try to hurry but in the following instances I was willing to slow down and I think it was worth it. I hope you agree.

My raw files are approx 31 to 32 megs.
Import into Lightroom and let it build 1:1 previews on import.
30 files takes 5 or 6 minutes with auto tone on.
In the development module, moving from image to image takes approx 7 to 8 seconds,
before I can actually work on the image.
What you say : slow, average, fast ?

Sounds like you may want to increase your RAM.

Larry, I took the liberty of working with your image to bring out a bit better version. I hope you don't mind.
I did not do this to hijack Larry's thread. So, please, keep the comments regarding the reworked image to a minimum.

Yeah, but I never got my hat back! He did make two passes at me, though, and the first hit my hat.

Excellent capture. Bet he is more than 7 feet. That tail can add a lot of length and this looks like a good sized gator.
He very well may have been. I saw him twice but I couldn't get a good angle to show his true size.

Give them respect and a wide berth well captured
Respect? How about fear? I used a 300mm lens and still felt too close.

Several years ago, I posted a photo of a Red-Shouldered Hawk that dove down and took my hat. the first picture is of that event (sorry for the poor quality of the scan). This past week I was walking in the same vicinity and it occurred again. This time, it didn't get my hat.
