 What is there to say... Now I finally learned to take my camera with me everywhere I go. Last night there was beautifull light and birds everywhere posing for this challenge. I was lucky encountering a bunch of swans today as well, but I messed up my exposure big time. So, in photoshop I converted it to black and white, leveled it to another dimension to, and added "Norway" to hide the damned tree.

I'm aiming for an average over 5. PLEASE GIVE ME 5!!!

Anyway, gotta love swans though... I wish I could justify taking photos of them. Their beauty exceeds my skills as a photographer.

Ganske fortellende tekst - da blir bildet usakelig. Canada gjess fra hvor som helst på veien mot noe tilsvarende...

I like the movement with the birds, but I don't see it as a postcard because of the black and white and the size.

Great shot! Your placement of the word Norway is very distracting and hard to read but then again this isn't a page layout contest. 7

A very impressionistic image and evocative of Norway. The font selection is good, but it's placement is problematic and might have worked better higher and in a upper corner.

Its a great picture but I would not buy a postcard in black and white. I am seldom thrilled by a black and white picture and especially not for a postcard.

I like the bird's in flight, the sun is to bright, the trees in the left hand corner are distracting IMO.

To me I think that Norway has more to offer then a few flying geese in black and white. Not really caring for this. Sorry.
