My attempt at my get pushed challenge from Jim—to capture a bird in flight— was pretty much a bust. Of course, I waited until Sunday afternoon to try. One shot that included a bird winging away from the feeder as another settles in and couple of shots of a part of a bird half way out of frame. I then headed to the viaduct over the river in hopes of something better. Not one stinking bird. Maybe wrong season or weather for gulls. At home again, a piss poor shot of two birds in the air. I give up. Posting these in the middle of the night because I fell asleep and woke up with none of the pictures uploaded as I had intended.
It's time for us to push each other, again. I have a fun idea for you. Take a favorite object from home into town and put it in the scene. Think of the Travelocity gnome. I did a series like this with a Nutcracker ornament a couple of years ago. (December 2020)
@tdaug80 You did an awesome job with that nutcracker! I’m driving up to Wisconsin on Wednesday, to a board meeting at SweetWood Temenos. I’ll be doing a little grocery shopping tomorrow evening probably, so I’ll have to take my chosen subject with me. Hopefully it will be OK taking it to SweetWood also, even though that’s a rural setting.
