I know ,as on another of my photos " in flight " previously posted on this site i almost expect you Viewers to call this 'Hitchcockesque' or straight from the movie 'The birds' or else , well you could say so for i have contrasted and played with Photo Filtre in adding a black fog filter to the scene in order to make it just look a little 'eerie' though i have not intended to overdo it either but i certainly wish to give this impression a little .
No idea which birds these are i mean their names but in my view they are alike vultures on closer examination . Shot on a late afternoon by the river San Juan near Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui , a kind of steamy jungle town 100 Kms northeast of the capital San José .
Your impressions please,
F/3.5,ISO 125,1/40
Thank you for looking,
Carol

Hello Carol,
Beautiful composition in B&W. The sky adds a scary mood to it -
especially with these vulture-like birds. Its like a scene
in a movie. Very well presented. I like it.

Best regards,
Sharina

Excellent creation.

Hi Carol:
A beautifully composed silhouette with a nicely blurred background .... Very well done Photo ....thanks for showing Carol......Roman:0)

hi carol.
this is my kind of picture.
i love the fog/cloud effect it really makes this 'eerie'.
the minimalist tree and the birds silhouette, fantastic.
nice work.

You've done a really great job on this!! WOW! It does look rather eerie, I like the background. The poses of the birds is also very interesting. TFS

LOL!!! Assez inquiétant comme capture.
On se sent observer.
Excellent travail de PP
