<p>Someone told me a huge flock of migrating geese had landed at a local baseball complex so I went to see for myself. Fortunately, they were still there -- hundreds of them. The light (overcast) wasn't great by any stretch, but the sheer number of birds was compelling so I hauled out the camera. When they took off together, wings flapping and throats squawking, it was quite the cacophony of sound.</p><div>00ZlT3-426381784.jpg.487413622de2903cd1508f0980f8264b.jpg</div>

<p>Hi, guys, I have not participated in this thread series for a while, but I'd like to make my return with this image from a freestyle/discojazz competition lately.</p>

<p>Entering a new phase in my dance photos - instead of trying to achieve the utmost sharpness, I'd like to explore the movement and long shutter times</p>

<p>Per-Christian - nice, very nice.<br>

Something differnt from me; two friends are a guitar duo, Deuawd (duo in Welsh) Elidir, and they have made a CD for friends and families. The CD is called Castell y Gwynt, Castle of the Winds, after a rock formation in our mountains - so they wanted a photo of Castell y Gwynt for the monochrome CD cover, and asked me if I had one. So back to the archives...</p><div>00ZlTt-426405584.jpg.c9e49c082c7e4bc21dda8c1e97340fd4.jpg</div>

<p>Good morning to all. I really like the photos this morning. Louis that is a wonderful photo of that tree taken with your trusty F3. My shot this morning is our new Lab Lexie thinking that she is a German Short Haired Pointer on a bird. If the truth be known she was probably pointing a nest of field mice. </p><div>00ZlUh-426431584.jpg.2076cb97a6a86581bde6c44f8ca1200d.jpg</div>

<p>Happy Holidays!<br /> Thanks for the kind comments last week (Jeannean, Nicolaie - thanks for the tip, Chris). <strong>Jeannean</strong> and <strong>Kent</strong> - made me laugh! <strong>Robert W.</strong> - that is pretty cool<br /> <br /> Looking through my shots from the past week, most "Christmassy" shot are sub-par (where is snow when you need it). So I am going to cheat a little bit - today is Winter solstice, but the sun isn't up yet, so here is yesterdays sunrise. I am such a pagan :)</p><div>00ZlVK-426447584.jpg.8675188c4e39a366253015d4ec2c2048.jpg</div>

<p>Good morning all, 'tis the season for train gardens and my model railroad club is showing their toy trains at museums in Maryland, finishing with a show at the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore next week. This photo is of a Milwaukee Road Hiawatha running past a drive-in theatre. D300, 24mm TS lens.</p><div>00ZlVP-426449584.jpg.11015d314b5ae80c3fb11cfe6b1c7111.jpg</div>
