those photos kick ass. this is where my post-skills lack.
on initial look, those photos have enough beauty, comp and clarity to be on par with MANY pro photos I've seen...but had I taken those photos...I wouldn't know if they were great, as is...or if it called for some dramatic post-production. I wouldn't know what to do...they are hot.
Thanks guys. These were a result of being in the right place at the right time. The geese were mostly on the ground with a few flying here and there. A man and his two kids ran after the birds causing a mass panic and flight. At first I was pissed at these people but in retrospect. nobody got hurt and only a few feathers were ruffled plus I got some cool shots.
As for post work, I just applied the National Geographic filter in Photoshop and the rest is history.
.....I KID! I mostly just ramped up the dull gray clouds to give some drama to the image
