Big Sky

I think this can work in this forum? From last springs trip to Montana to photograph migrating waterfowl. This is looking east at sunrise as thousands of snow geese head out to the fields to feed.

Hi Robert, You captured beautiful light along with nicely layered clouds. Capturing the masses of birds fills the majority of the image well along with minimalizing the silouette. I might crop out the one lone bird on top. Interesting image!!

Hey Dale,
Pretty interesting. I agree with Dave on the crop.....this also accentuates the RH V. While this doesn't have a wow factor per say.....I feel it is a strong environmental image and shows the flock mass nicely. Definitely brings back memories!

A beautiful shot with wonderful light and colors. I like the huge amount of birds in the sky.
