Nice image. Red Wing Blackbird?

The names you give your photos are very nearly as good as the photos.

Yes! I love Red-winged Blackbirds!

Steve,

I like this one, mostly because of the content: these are one of my favorite birds. Did you post process this to make that streaked background effect? What camera(s) and lenses do you use?

One last question :-) Are you on the DPReview forums?

Thanks, Ron

Ron,
You can see this regarding the equipment.

I used camera setup #2 for this shot.
You do get a weird effect when you try panning with the movement of the birds.
i am not on any of the forums. I am only here at nikonsniper.

Those birds are beautiful and what a great contrast to the plant life.
