Awesome... That inclusion of bare tree branches at the top right adds too much to the otherwise abstract flights of these starlings.
Also, I liked how the birds close to the tree are rendered sharp probably slowing down near the tree compared to those that are far and still flying across.
Beautiful creation, Nirlep. TFS.

Samyak thanks for your words. Iwas wondering about some birds being sharply in focus. Your observation about them being close to the tree put things in perspective. Thanks!
Ganesh this is my backyard in bathinda. We have kind of eco-zone in our colony. This year a flock of about 5000 birds has descended. In this frame alone there would be approx 1500. I did triangulation of the frame and counted :) In the evening they begin their dance exactly at 7. and wow I'm having fun. With birds for the first time.

Nirlep, you are one lucky bloke, this would give infinite creations for sure, if those birds decide to dance along with you in your backyard.
A fine image for my books :)

RD the birds decided to leave leaving me disappointed. Wish me better luck next time.
Arati even I wanted more of branches. Will try harder just in case the birds decide to return.
