This one is published by National Geographic USA, Editor's Favorite. Original is very dark since the high speed, I use HDR to make it close to the nature and enhance the details. This picture is one of the 5 regular HDR setting pictures. I never expected the geese taking off. I was there for four hours until a helicopter approaching,actually passing by in distance:). I know this is not a good subject for HDR, just want to share the exciting moment with you. Must see full size.

@Phil I always use 1/1000S to shoot flying birds. By the way I wish there is a function that I can delete some vote.
