This is some really awesome photography of birds using a slow shutter-speed. In all of my years of photography I (personally) have never seen anything of this magnitude. I have seen and done slow shutter-speed shots but not like this, I just never thought to even try it, much less do it successfully.

Anyway, click on the link to see some really beautiful and creative shots of birds in the sky flying.

Also, to ANYONE that still believes in 'RODS' please take note, this is a really good example of what insects do when people take pictures of them using a slightly slow shutter-speed.

Very beautiful and interesting pictures.
The starlings are my favorite. I've been fortunate enough to see the synchronous acrobatics of murmuration and it was captivating and stunning.
Happy New Year!

A starling murmuration is definitely something to see if one hasn't, they are not my favorite birds, but in giant flcoks they are. I don't like them at my bird feeder, for sure.

Thanks for your reply.
Happy New year to you also!

It is a very cool method, I wish I'd have thought of that.

On the rods thing, I was sure hoping that someone that still believes in rods would come forth, I'd like to hear their thoughts on this. I REALLY loved "rods" when they were first 'discovered', I wanted them to be real, that was a really neat-o thing for us to see. Oh well...

I feel the same, if birds weren't around I don't know that I would want to continue to live, well, there is my puppy dog, but.

I have been taking pictures for many years, I have been on a photography site for many years too, I have never seen anything like that on there, I have seen many cool things, but nothing that compared really.
I see it as art, I guess, and since I love birds so much I am biased.

Thanks for your reply.
