oh..cheryl..wow..I love it! Great work with texture, color, and I even like the diagonal lines...and the focus of the ducks! Great work of capturing flight in action...I get a sense of freedom and release...nice work! You should do this profesionally

Could easily expect the signature to be Uly, Shay or Andy. How much for a print. Mikeeee

Wow, Cheryl! What an amazing capture! Lucky shot, or not, it's a beauty. Thanks for sharing your artistry...A B300...hmmm...something to think about adding to my wish list.---Deb

Wow everyone so nice of you, I am so pleased you liked this :)
And the B-300 is a telephoto lens that seems to do well with
the Sony 707. It's light and I go NO WHERE without it lol.

It is a great capture Cheryl!
The background has me going to, you explained it well...
"The ducks flying are so vivid and the blurry background doesn't look like the
BG if you know what I mean. It looks in FRONT."
The ducks almost look like a PSP Tube, you know what I am saying.
Great job! NC

Cheryl, this is gorgeous! Such beautiful color and detail on the three main ducks (beautifully placed in the frame) against such a bright background. Wow! (I have a B300 that I've never used, as I still need a step-down ring-- this makes me anxious to get one and try it.) Melanie (mlynn)

Very unique shot cheryl. I love it! Antoine

Thank you all very very much. I am so pleased you liked it.
I got lucky lol. I think it is a kinda of odd image. The ducks
flying are so vivid and the blurry background doesn't look like the
BG if you know what I mean. It looks in FRONT. I guess it was the
angle I shot it at that makes it look that way. :)
