It was almost middle of the day when we happened to drive through the strip pit area. So, I am shooting with my little point and shoot and cannot see the screen...I am just aiming and hoping for a decent result. The one above, I got a glimpse, but only guessed and shot. The ones below are totally blind shots. I would have a better chance of reading in the dark than seeing the screen...
Not too bad...for not seeing what I was shooting...
I was happier with this one. Look toward the horizon...all those geese on the ground. I think they are mostly white fronted geese, but not sure. I think there are some Canada geese mixed in.
This last photo is a cropped version of the one above it.
Wow! Lots of birds. Look at the Swans and how they tuck in their feet

Wow! Well, as they say, safety in numbers. Are the ones in the first picture white fronted? Swans maybe? Great flying shots, not blurry at all. This takes patience and talent. For you, that is, not the birds!
ReplyDeleteWell, that worked out fine. Lovely shots.
ReplyDelete...shooting blind, I've gotten rather good at this and you did a great job.
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Beautiful Rose.
ReplyDeleteWow, you do good. Love the flight shot. Awesome sighting of the geese.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday, enjoy your day and weekend!
i was watching an eagle in my back yard the other day. it was so fun. love seeing their style. way cool!! happy new year!! ( ;
ReplyDeleteLovely shots on the birds and u did the best despite the difficult in shooting! The blue sky and white geese was brilliant
ReplyDeleteI think your series is very good. It is impressive when one knows of the condition under which you had to take pictures.
ReplyDeleteFantastic series! Glad you just went ahead and aimed and clicked!
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
you have reminded me of something i used to do and post on my blog. i called them blind shots, where I would just aim and not look at what i was taking, as in sit the camera on the ground and snap it. these came out beautifully and i love the last one with all those birds on the ground. I took my tablet outside to take a photo and the sun was so bright even in the shade i could not see the screen. that is why i wanted the eye hole on my camera, which is hard to find these days. the viewer is not there on most which i rather use than a screen
ReplyDeleteLots of birds. Great shots for not being able to see what you were taking. : )
ReplyDeleteBlind or not, point and shoot, the results were excellent--especially the first one.
ReplyDeleteWow! Great pics, you did just fine without knowing what you were going to get.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I think you did a great job. Truly amazing to see the birds.
ReplyDeleteIf these are the results of shooting blind than I say you did a fantastic job.Great pictures.
ReplyDeleteQuite the flock of birds!
ReplyDeleteWauu.. so many swans, wonderful shots.
ReplyDeleteWish you happy new year.
Fabulous shots, Rose. Such majestic birds. Really dramatic.
ReplyDeleteThose white birds in motion are so beautiful. I always have to stop for white birds. Look at all those geese on the ground, what a sight!
