Shawangunk Nuthatches

It is fun to catch birds in flight.. Not always the sharpest of images but I like them anyway.

    In the first photo, the blurred background looks like wisps of smoke, and the wings seem to be stirring it up. It’s a lovely impression.

      Thanks. The camera did the work. Next time I’ll try messing with shutter speed to make wing blur as Derrick suggested.

    A good set. I prefer a bit of blur when picturing flight

      Next time I will try shutter priority instead of aperture priority to slow down the shutter speed for some blur. I appreciate your comment my friend.
