Very nice one, Dave - two flying out of the pic and one just entering, good catch and well executed ...Bee

Nice photo - it's great you were able to capture them with their wings spread!

Thanks for your comments.
The shutter was 1/640, the aperture was f8.

This is nice, Dave. You really froze the wings well. Do you remember how fast your shutter was ? john(ebones)

Neat capture of both their flight and their wing pattern, Dave. You had the additional consideration of "snow" - the contrast looks great. Bev

Lovely capture of these turkeys in flight Dave. (I think I mispelled turkeys earlier, and I knew it looked wrong when I did it ;).) Melanie (mlynn)
