I was so very excited when the birds were flying towards the moon. Unfortunately, we were on a hay ride, and I didn't get enough opportunity to really play with this. Some of the shots were way too fuzzy, I should have zoomed in more to get a better shot (this is a pretty close crop), and I cannot shoot at 800 ISO at the sky with the 7D -- major grain problems that I tried to fix in topaz denoise. I should have gone back after the hayride and played some more. I like the shot, but I think, with patience and luck, it could have been better. (They flew in front of the moon 4 different times when I was there. :D

Such good details on the moon and still the geese are pretty sharp. Well done.

This is great. I have tried to get something like this but it never seems to line up right for me. Nice work.

Two students in our group focused on this image and loved the combination of birds and moon very much.
