As the last rays of sun illuminated the surface of the East Pond, a flock of about 100 snow geese blasted off heading south and then east out of the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Sanctuary here in New York City. These photos are taken from a sequence of 25 images and as luck would have it the buffer filled as I took the last image.
Great light in these - and they really show the way they work in unison to get from one place to another - I'm sure for safety reasons! I always look forward to your shots Morris. You have your own style
That's a very pleasant sequence, Morris, and the marsh close-to-the-ground images are some sweet in light, colour and overall feel.
One suggestion.....call me crazy, but if you are showing a flock of birds which are fairly large in the frame individually, i.e., with well discernible features, then I think it is best not to show any of the birds truncated by the frame. In other words, any and all birds in the flock should be either entirely in, or out. (Alas, sometimes we have to resort to cloning removal of truncated birds in order to achieve the aforementioned in-out state.) Now, if one chooses not to do that, then the image with truncated birds might convey a sense of overly lax or random framing .
