Just purchased Luminar 4 and naturally I went to sky replacement first. I've included the original image.
Would greatly appreciate comments and suggestions for improvement especially from those who are using the program.

I am overwhelmed by the number of comments these photos have generated. Thank you for all your kind words.
I shot these at F11 and 1/320 as I was only set up for the rainbow. In hindsight, I wish I had increased the shutter speed when I realized the birds were going to fly through the shot. But like most of you said this was a once in a lifetime shot and my 69year old brain wasn't working fast enough to make the change. I have lots of videos of their murmurations and I hope to be able to download some soon. They put on an amazing display as they are light on their underside and dark on top. When they turn into the sun they light up like a spotlight and when they turn away the light goes out and they disappear. I've watched them do this nonstop for more than 1/2 hour at times.
Thank you again for all your positive comments and encouragement.

Waking up to Mt. Baker (10771 FT.) What a view.

I followed these ducks, hopping to get them landing on the water. Instead, they hit the water and immediately took off again skipping off the surface like a stone. I didn't see any predators in the area but I guess they did.

After photographing thousands of snow geese in their mass takeoffs and landings I was collecting hundreds of photos of the same thing and it was hard to maintain my enthusiasm. So I decided to try something different.
Instead of shooting at 1/2000 of a second I decided to try blurring the image and shoot at 1/20 of a second.
The results were dozens of ugly white blobs strangely similar to the blobs the geese were leaving on my windshield. I did pull a couple out that caught my attention though. You can be the judge.

I think this guy was just trying to enjoy our first sunny day after several weeks of ridiculous amounts of rain.

We've had several hundred swans in our area this year but, only one like this.
Has anyone else seen this before?
