Description At the time I was taking some photos of some friends when I heard a bunch of wings flapping turned around and this is what turned out.

beautifully creepy! Congrats on seizing the moment as you did. Being there is 80% of getting good shots as they say! The geometric arrangement of the birds is no accident and it's cool to see nature's forms captured and revealed like this. A friend of mine wrote his dissertation on the relationship of "multiples to the uncanny", and this image would go perfectly with his text. There's just something ominous about gatherings of birds in particular. Perhaps because of the way they move individually, yet also as a coherent group. Hitchcock capitalized on this uncanny sensation with the classic movie "The Birds"

Now thats a comment. Thanks for taking the time and analyzing my photo. Most people, including me dont get into detail about someone else's work. So a big thanks to you.

you know it's funny, i saw the thumbnail on the da opening page and though "alfred hitchcock" and then i click on it and see your title "the birds" di you title it that because of his movie or only because of the subject matter?
