    Snow geese and sandhill cranes captured at one of the ponds outside the reserve. The treatment was with DAP using the "realism" preset with some adjustments.

    Kerry, Looks like it could be a painting. I like how the focus is sharp at the bottom and gradually fades. Did I mention how much I love the colors!:)

    Connie mentions the above ... I would like to know how you moved the birds before the shot ... must have been fun to get them to stay positioned!!! ;) :D While Sandhills are not as skidish as many birds, they also like to wonder around ... At least that is how the ones I've met have acted! ;)

    I like the arrangement though some of the geese on the right and left frame edges are problematic. I love the effect especially on the birds at the back. Could you have increased the effect on the birds closer to us? It seems as if I am in the minority on that :))
