Bird in Flight by taffy

Bird in Flight

Four flew by our window quite suddenly. I spotted them down to the beach quite a ways away but fortunately had a long telephoto on my camera from last night's sunset. This is not exciting in composition, but I was so pleased to capture a clear bird!
Art festival ended with lots of positive response, no sales, but the owner of the art gallery asked to take all my photos and have them in her gallery! So quite pleased at the experience overall -- so fun to hang out with other artists and be labeled as an 'artist' myself, but also SO glad my livelihood does not depend on this!
Agreed...amen to a creative outlet! Fav!

Glad for a happy ending! Wing angle draws one in.

Superb capture 👍

So cool when you get one so close by in motion! Glad the art fair was ao positive. I think it must be terrifying if such things are a sole source of income!

A wonderful clear capture. So happy that the fair was positive and that you did not have to take your photos home :-)

A beautiful bird in flight !

Tack sharp - hope the sales come rolling in, what a huge compliment to want them all!!

oh wow, taffy. your wonderful images in a gallery ... congrats :)
July 21st, 2018  
Wonderful bird shot and how super that your images are heading off elsewhere! Well done you!

Great BIF shot- lovely clear face! The fact that no one bought your images just proves to me that people do not value photos these days. Everyone has a phone and they think they can take those shots! I think maybe if the gallery was in Chicago it might be different but probably not. My friend who is a pro photographer no longer tries to sell his work. He makes his money taking people to exotic places to take their photos and includes training and processing in the holiday. Places like Nepal, India, Burma etc. Just know that you fans on 365 appreciate your fabulous work and talent!

You must be so pleased at the outcome from the art fair, your images deserve to be in a gallery for all to see :)

He’s a beautiful bird, he appears to be so big! It’s wonderful that your photos are going to the art gallery! Yes, I guess there’s truth to the phrase “starving artist”!

Amazing action shot and angle Fav

Excellent focus in this.

Well done for catching this so clearly - I find it hard enough to get decent shots of stationary birds!

perfect capture! 500mm? Couldn't hold it

@pepinosobotka it’s the Tamron 150-600. It’s actually not that heavy. Tripod is best tho.
July 22nd, 2018  
Great to have the positive feed back despite no sales. Cant think why though! Good clear shot of the bird in flight and unusual POV to get.
July 22nd, 2018  
Beautiful shot!
