I just got home from a week in New Mexico, mostly at Bosque del Apache. It is getting cold down there and more birds are coming in as the northern cold drives them down. This was taken nearby at sunset, as an in-camera blur. Then I dashed back into the car to warm up :)!
c & c very welcome.

Lovely image, Nancy! The colors and subject really say "fall" to me. Perfect amount of blur and excellent composition. I wonder if taking a slice off the left and adding a tiny bit to the right might make it even better. Well done. :)

Nice image. I love the way it looks like the geese are flying over the top of a cloud.
