A great documentary shot Debra. The narative is great too. Agree with Harold = the sky was needed. The line of tall grasses is terrific - my marsh doesn't grow them so big. Big foreground grass is perfect for the perspective. Love those shot with lots of inhabitants.
Thank you Yves for your comments always appreciated. I know you like the marshes as well. The foreground grass is all new this year from the lowering of the water for their marsh management program.
Beautiful soft greens against the blues and the brown on the grasses at the rear make a nice backdrop for the water. A nice mix of stillness and movement in the birds. I like the fact that you added the blue sky at the back but that you kept it at a minimum.
Thanks Harold for your feedback. Interesting you should say that about the sky, nice to know. I was wishing that I hadn’t cutoff the top of the tree and included a little more sky and a little less foreground grasses.
Gorgeous blue water, it literally shines in contrast to the tall grasses that surround it. The geese in the foreground draw the eye into the scene so nicely here and it already looks like a hub of activity. You captured a lot of excellent detail on the birds in the water and in flight. A very beautiful and interesting image, Debra, and I appreciate the narrative!
Thank you Heather feedback is appreciated. For any bird photographers this is the place to visit until the end of October.
