THEME - Our National Parks and Wildlife Refuges
I am so thankful that we have places that preserve the natural beauty of this country and allow safe places of refuge for birds and wildlife. This was taken this year at the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. It was early morning and I used a 5 sec. exposure and moved the camera slightly to get an other-worldly effect. That's the way I feel when I'm out there before dawn and you can see the shapes and forms and their slow movement as they get ready to take off at first light. The sounds of the sandhill cranes and geese really make you feel like you're in their world - it's very primeval and special:S3:
