Waiting for the weather to get clear enough for making annother panorama, I shot this, this morning (17 hours ago - I'm really tired). I didn't think must of the scenery, when a lot of birds suddenly took off. Comments are welcome. http://gallery46369.fotopic.net/p7841283.html
Neat shot. I saw the flying birds first, then my eye was drawn down to the hundreds/thousands of them perched on what looks like a breakwater or something. Cool.
And, of course, the backdrop of the smoke-belching factories provides an interesting contrast. Despite the look, I realize that whatever is coming from the smokestack may not be as bad as it looks. I'm guessing that the water/air is fairly clean there, judging by the number of boids.
cheers, frank
