Nature Flying

Flying · 07:14 AM

Migration is pretty much at it's fullest right now. There were couple groups of Whooper Swans flying (they almost collided) and two Cranes on a nearby field today.
Tried to do something different with this photo so I toned it.

Thank you Jan!

That's right - Swans are usually hard to expose because of the white feathers.

Nice shot, the dark cloud above them really adds to the image.

Well done!

I kind of like it. THe only thing that bothers me are the fringes on the birds.....

Nice shot Joni - a 3-effect I don't see often with BID images.

They almost look like kamikazes...I love how the photo style kind of looks like the older type of film too. Nice photo!

I like it Jon; it pops even more on the black background.

Beautiful toning. The clouds really add to this one. But is it sharpened a tad too much?
