I like the bevy of birds here. I like how they are [almost] all facing the same direction. The bird front and center decided to do something different (and his buddy behind him also decided to preen). Unfortunately, it's like taking pictures of a large group of people...one is always looking the wrong way. In this case, it's the bird that is in the center of the frame and most focused.

Did you get one with all the birds looking straight ahead?

Thanks for sharing. Today was not a day for taking water pictures in Ohio.

70-200L, 28-70L, 24-105L, 300L, 50, 10-17 fish, 2.0x TC
Image editing OK, encouraged, and expected. Thank you for helping me learn!

That would be tough shot to achieve with all of them looking the same direction. Aside from the headless guy and the one with his head turned they all seemed to cooperate. The water reflection really does alot for the shot. Nice job

I like it. If I were to change something, I would say a deeper DOF to try and get them all (or at least a few rows) in focus.

Both your images are way over the maximum size limit for the forum. 1024px on the longest side. You can link to bigger versions if you would like.
