On my way home last night after looking for spoonbills. :cool: Blackbirds? were everywhere as I went over a bridge. Used railings for support, no tripod. 5:50pm. Bridge, boats and Yaght Club foreground.

Canon 40D, 24-105L, 1/1000, f/5.6, -.33 EV, ISO 3200 (no reduction) :(
Increased yellows in PS CS4 to bring out yellow/purple and ran noise reduction.
Other tweaks I forgot; Looked OK in CS4 but will see how it looks here. :)

Yes, I quite like it. Lots of birds there! I don't mind the hand-of-man elements at all here, but this is also the reason I've moved your thread to the hand-of-man forum. Nice composition of keeping the horizon low, and the avian activity in the vast sky above :-)

Love it Bill !!!

I like the careful framing Might take a little from the top for proportion. Excellent feel !!!

Hi Bill,

This is very nice and carries a nice feeling to it. One of your best for sure! The composition works very well with the interesting FG.

Keep up the good work!

This one is excellent.....yes...one of your best. I love the silhouettes of the birds, the color of the sky, and boats, docks, etc. Wonderful.....well seen and well presented.
