On my second trip to Broad Channels’ American Park I experience another treat as I walk out. This time it’s a few hundred brant geese on the baseball field in post magic hour light. The photo of the geese with Lower Manhattan in the background shows right field from center field. The photo after than shows the geese in the right fielders position and the larger puddle is between first and second base. I chose to leave the noise in the OOF areas of the last image as I liked the gritty look on the ball field. Dose that work for you?

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Looks like a too many men on the field penalty to me Nice work Morris!! Around here these guys aren't quite so used to people, I have never seen them on a play field in person.

yeah morris, these guys seem to be increasing in manicured areas where one might expect to see canada geese. i like the shot with the freedom tower in the background. makes a nice juxtaposition between the birds and the city.
