Artist's Comments

I was out taking a walk with my camera and stopped to take a photo. Next thing I knew, I was being swooped by a magpie, so I held out the camera and pressed the button. The magpie was in the bottom center of what was originally a 2816x2120 photo with lots of blue sky. Yes, it's out of focus, and a bit motion blurred, but it's still a great photo!

Not a bad photo at all. Capturing birds in flight, especially when they are attacking you is not an easy task. Sure the image is a little grainy and blurry, but you captured an excellent pose. Good job.

Not only is it a good photo, (yeah outstanding would be if the technical things fell into place,) but it's a great reference. You can see the shape of the wings and the way the bird looks.
