Ascending





It's a deceptively simple image.  A flock of birds rising from behind some trees.  But when you think about it it's pretty remarkable, considering this is a 'candid' shot taken on the spur of the moment, not an arranged one.  I don't remember if I waited for that one bird to top the Sun - probably it was a lucky accident - but anyhow, what timing; and the bifurcated clump of trees provides a perfect setting for the birds' emergence.  A great example of finding the Extraordinary in the ordinary.  A humble shot of an everyday event, but a special one, and one that can never be duplicated.
