It would be good to have a sound track, must be amazing, like the mood of this image, the silhouettes are great. I've shifted the whites..

Very nicely captured grouping, on the one morning that we had some clouds at sunrise. Tim's repost is a subtle improvement on a lovely frame.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Hey Geoffrey, pretty darn nice! I have to admit there are a few merges that I could do without, but the dramatic sky and silhouetted crane make for an appealing scene.

[John Mack]

The sky makes this one. The merges are what they are. I Mean this is what you had to work with right?

[William Dickson]

Lovely frame Geoffrey... I really like this one. Everything looks good. If mine I would clone out the overlapping birds near the front of the group. Love that sky...Well done

Thanks Tim. Thanks for taking the time to adjust the whites. I like this as well, but I liked the colder/darker feel which is what I saw and felt at the moment. Yes the Bosque del Apache is an amazing refuge.

Funny you also had the same thought regarding having a soundtrack. Next trip.
