That are 3 very nice phots Harish, like the last one best. How much cropping did you have to do?

Thank you Heinrich.
I did about 50% cropping of these shots as they are very small birds.

Amazing captures of some small and very active birds! Wonderful detail and tonal range too.

Superb. Lovely birds. I really like the second one.

Hi

Your second picture looked somehow like I had seen this before.
I wrecked my brain and then suddenly it came to me. This is a classic Chinese way of painting swallows in flight.
Just a bit of trivia.

But I thought you might be interested to know, you captured something the Chinese have an eye for.

Greetings

PS: I have seen this in China not only on porcelain.
