Just Passin Through

Not a great picture but I kind of liked the bird who just happened to pass by as I released the shutter. He's kind of blurry but I did like the reflection in the window from the Christmas tree lights. This is pretty much SOOC except for a little vibrance boost and slight crop.
A really pretty shot; looks very seasonal. And, yes, the bird passing through does give it that added interest.

This is cool!! I like this shot, which is one bird tried to fly away from your shots.
December 5th, 2010  
Like it!

It wouldn't be the same without the bird flying away. Nice capture.

I agree, the blurred wings add to the whole experience!

Thank you guys for all your kind comments. I had just finished adding goodies to my feeding station and was actually just waiting around for some really cool bird to show up. While standing there waiting for the perfect picture I took some test shots to see what they looked like. At the end of the day when there was no cool bird shot I just decided to go with this one. Maybe some super-rare, endangered species will show up today and pose for me...lol!! :)

Well, you might not like this very well, but it's a fav for me!!! I LOVE the birds, the snowy background, and the depth of field, but the reflected Christmas lights give it a really magical feel... Beautiful shot!!!

And hey, I just saw you on the "new faces" page with this... :)

This is lovely. It's so much fun to catch birds in flight. I love their wings all spread out, and the look of determination on their little faces!!
December 5th, 2010  
Great capture,very nice!
December 5th, 2010  
The lil bird in flight is just awesome!!!

They are out looking. I came home tonight and found our three feeders dry as a bone.

Wow this is so beautiful! It looks so wintery. I love the Christmas lights reflected too.

@jillpearce @marijalaca @jonna @ridwan326 @bribuccigrossi @jennarichards Thank you for all the nice comments.....I really enjoy trying to capture them but they are usually to quick for me to get them in flight without the blur! I'll keep trying though! :)
