I was set up on a nest with my tripod and capturing a flicker pair returning from foraging.  I would capture a burst when they left the top of the nest pole to return to the nest.  I did a composite sequence of the approach.  I hope this is enough art for this gallery.

I admired your shots on FM...really a neat way to give animation.

Stunning picture(s), Doug! Love the beautiful colors and this is a wonderful sequence. You did a great job picking just the right images and processing them in a convincing way. Plenty of "art" for this gallery! :). And welcome!

I love this sequence image. Spacing & color are great. Wing action really helps tell the story.

Great sequence - nice wing positions, bright colours, and a "story"
Very fine work!

Congratulations on your Editor's Pick. An image to be proud of. I hope it is hanging on a wall somewhere.
