The sun is also beautiful

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Great light, mood and action captured. I might clone out the birds that are clipped.

[Alfred Forns]

Looks good to me Vincent Particularly like how the birds are flying away form the sun !!! Do like the suggestion of cleaning the edges !!

[Maxis Gamez]

Oh man... this is very nice... I would clone out the birds cut in half on top of the frame.

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Love the composition and then wonderful lighting. I agree with Alfred and Axel about cleaning up the edges. Beautifully captured and thanks for sharing Vincent.

Unbelievable Vincent, I absolutely love this. Great light and atmosphere. I like how the diagonal and defined shape of the birds leads the eye to the bottom right where the photo is anchored by the sun. Great stuff!
