even the wings are in motion! awesome Dvora, I think you got it! ... I love owls, they have such wise looking faces. (I think you should crop the top to get rid of as much pole as possible!)

Do you mean the cactus? I didn't want to lose *all* of the sky... :)

dsglass replied to ???:

Thanks! Pure luck. ;) It's all manual focus, trying to capture the birds as they were flying back and forth over-head (earlier that morning, his friend the horned owl actually got me with a wing-flap!) I got as many out-of-focus blurry birds as motion-blurred ones...

Shuttering Yukon replied to dsglass:

that's a cactus? sheesh silly me! I thought it was a power pole! I get what you mean about 'loosing the sky' but I think it takes away from the bird! but then again Dvora, that is only my opinion...

Re-cropped and added in a note... Think maybe you're right. :)

Shuttering Yukon replied to dsglass:

I really like the cropped version... and Dvora, I am a girl so therefore always right! even when I am wrong!
