The first looks especially like music, both sheet music and the idea of music. Lyrical and lovely. Reply
Thanks very much, Jen, what a lovely interpretation. I guess looks can be deceiving, though, since the music is something like ‘HOnK, HonK, hONK!’. You’re probably familiar with Canadian geese…. : ) Reply
Karen, as so often words that spring to mind upon viewing your geese and one gull! are: Sensitivity, elegance, delicacy, gracefulness, amongst but a few, and all that done with a love for nature. Reply
You have captured beautifully what my son and I keep spotting in recent weeks. Autumnal skies and flying birds 🙂 Reply
Agree with you, Karen. Reminiscent of the origami cranes I would make as a child. The feeling of fleeting movement is serene and beautiful. Reply
Very nice. There is a real feeling of motion with these images.
Thank you, they remind me of origami somehow.
You’re welcome. Now that you mention it, yes, I agree.

Mmmmm… Perfect. And yes: they do look like origami, but with beautiful, watery edgelessness. 🙂
Never seen a long exposure of birds before – they are very dreamy Karen! 🙂
