Several years ago I was taking photos of a bunch of geese on a small lake, I heard a lot of honking in the sky and watched as all of the geese on the lake moved to one side. The one by one each of the geese in the air came in and landed on the open side. I continued slowly around the lake taking shots. Some of the geese flew off. About 45 minutes later I heard more honking and the scene was repeated. This time I was ready and got some really good shots of the geese coming in. I will try to find thes a nd post them.
I graduated HS in 54' and I'm still alive & kicking! Having fun, too!! My dad bought a 49' Olds 98, after his beautiful 46' Maroon Dodge, one night, burned to a crisp in the garage. After my Dad passed in 53 (age 41) when I was a hurtin and crazy teenager, I would sneak the car keys and drive that hot 98 Olds around the area. I should not admit this, but I was only 16 and without a license. I also worked 70 - 75 hours a week for $.50 an hour. I'm not ashamed of some of the crazy things I did as a teenager, but I do think about it often. My two grandsons and granddaughter love hearing my "old days" stories. I think sharing and being open about my follies lets them know that mistakes and "screwups" are human, normal and that we can survive it and still turn out to be decent people. At least I hope I am!
Stay safe & well, Mark

Hi Mark. My older brother's (he's 82, I'm 80) first auto was a '49 Olds fastback with a straight 8. He put a '51 Olds. V8 in it. I loved that car Frank
Great work. I would crop out or ,clone out the car on the left if it were my pic. A lot of the time I never see things like that until I print large. Really p*#^ me off.
Awesome shot. I kinda like the car to give perspective.
