On my short trip to USA - auf meinem kurzen Trip in die USA
I decided to convert this shot to monochrome, on the basis that it conveys mainly shape and form. The gannet, (Morus bassanus) was approaching a landing spot at the clifftops of RSPB Bempton nature reserve and the shapes it was making seemed rather balletic as it it started to slow down and control its descent in a rather brisk onshore wind. I have also added a subtle vignette, to help further separate the subject from the defocussed background. I will post the colour version in a few days' time as a comparison and because I quite like both versions.
seen as I walked today, I think there might be even more snow
geese this year, endless waves of them fly over our house, its quite spectacular.
song suggestions welcome :)

I like the feather patterns on the wings
