Overcast day after rain washed away a lot of snow on the fields.
Decided to go out in the afternoon to see how the pond and some of the nearby fields looked.
Sony A7c, Sony FE 28-60mm and Nikkor 70-300mm both ƒ4.5-5.6. Light pp in Affinity Photo for a couple, others in RawTherapee followed with resize in ON1.
For the last shot, I would appreciate the bird ID... (I know - it's a terrible shot!) they were quite large birds this is at 300mm.
Please feel free to comment/critique.
Enjoy!

The ones with individual trees are really neat.

Images --and how those images might be processed-- are always an individualistic thing. There isn't necessarily a 'right,' but if they're not considered, and more, if they're not somehow pre-conceived, there can sometimes be a 'wrong.' Not 'wrong' in the sense that they stray from whatever reality is (or may have been), but 'wrong' in the sense that the image(s) become merely images as opposed to images that somehow make something of a statement. Then again, maybe making a statement of some kind was not what you --the individual-- might've had in mind.

Images #5, 6 and 8 are the strongest images among the group. Could they have been stronger? That's an individualistic thing, and what you've presented is entirely up to you and your aesthetic. They're not how I'd have approached processing --not with anything approaching 'pop', but instead with deeper blacks and brightened lights-- them, but that's neither here nor there. What I suspect we'd both agree with would be the proposition that if we don't go look, we'll never find.

Nice set, I like your tree shots best, particularly 4, 6, 8 & 9, love the fine branch details in #9. For some of the verticals, I would have trimmed the excess top of sky, but that's just my own personal style, I don't like overly "long" portrait shots, they look unnatural to me. Well done Ours!

I like the closer tree scenes, nature is a real therapy.

These are really nice, George. I especially love 4 & 5. I think you have captured a gang of turkeys in the last shot.

Thanks for looking in and for the positive vibes. I was surprised at all of the garbage that has accumulated in some of the trees...
