Tundra Swans in Flight

[ff151]

Hello all,

With the tremendous help I have gained from these forums, here is a shot I am happy with. Luckily, the swans all lined up and stayed in formation though!



I am not after an "critique" per se, but please feel free to comment on the pros or cons that you see with YOUR eye.

I like the tilt of the birds with one side higher than the other. They are either going into or coming out of a left hand banking turn. Nicely done

Great lines and fabulous angle. It was so nice of them to line up like that for you. Fantastic shot!

what a great shot, nice timing to get them all on the same wing flap... your white balance is really good for so bright a sky and you have excellent focus for multiple moving targets,, well done .. Love it

Beautiful symmetry and balance in your composition, and the clarity and crispness of course. Fantastic shot, should send it to National Geographic.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments! Yes I did get a bunch of flying shots!

Lastly, you mentioned National Geographic, I put one of my photographs into the Canadian Geographic wildlife of the year contest and won "honerable mention" (essentially third)
