Wow!....this shot is really startling in its intensity. It looks like it was taken at dusk yet the exif shows there was quite a bit of light. I love the processing as always Damon. Thanks for the tips the other day by the way. I'm still studying the process.

Eye catching shot. What is the white area on the bottom right .. a person?

@Helen: snow... or whatever you want it to be. Thanks, Helen!

This is intense, you woke up from a dream to some kind of Hitchcock's Bird reality, great photo!

FABulous capture, Damon!! The thing I love the most is the varying degrees of flight.

Hey this shot is cool. The notion of flight, the movement, as well as the tone of the house against the strong blue sky work brilliantly. Personally, my eye is distracted by the white bit on the right - kind of looks like a print with the corner eaten out of the picture?? would have preferred no white distractions... just my opinion anyway. You've got great shots.

@treehouse: Australians don't seem to understand snow:-) Thanks!
