Just SUPER DD work, Merna. You'd never know it had been a daytime photo. WTG!! #9680306Laura E. Swan September 19, 2011
Amazing DDR, Merna! This is so cool and even eerie because we know birds don't fly after dark...which awakens the imagination of the viewer, making us wonder if they are GHOST BIRDS!!! This is what great campfire stories are made of! Images like this!Love it lots!

Okay Miss Laura: Don't tell me that you have never heard of DD birds, and that they only come out at night? They are always very friendly and hungry.Irene Colling September 20, 2011
Your transformation from day to night is astounding Merna. The pounding waves combined with the birds in flight gives the scene lots of energy.Great image Merna. #9681908
