Some of you know that I love to play with slow shutter speeds after the sun goes down. These were taken after a storm passed through NYC in early October. The sun was down for about 20 minutes and the sky lit up wonderfully. I’ve shared other photos from this wonderful sunset and have a few more to come.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Well done on the last, Morris. Fine line between soft and intentional blur...great job w/sharp body and the wing movement.

Nice work Morris.
I like 3 also. I wondor what a little more contrast enhancement & slightly tighter crop might do for the first one.

The sky is surely pretty in these Morris and I too like the last shot of your 'slow-shutter' creations!

Morris I love that last one. Sometimes for variety I crop those into a pano style by taking both top & bottom away to make a very thin but powerful horizontal of it. Any way you that you do it this is a great shot and one that I admire. Take care. Bob

The banded and colorful cloudy sky makes the title perfect Morris.

I really like the effect your technique produces here for silhouette shots... I'm definitely going to try it sometime.

I like 1 and 3 best because I prefer the head on shots with more movement seen by the wing motion.

Very well done Morris... I like these a lot.
