The birds would just not hover over this guy and it's highly unlikely the photographer had his camera ready to take the picture.
But it's cute regardless...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19471791 Mon, 19 Nov 2007 11:20:23 EDT Re: One in a million shot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19470205 Weirdal :

I guess that only the photographer knows for sure.

Yeah, it would be extremely easy to manipulate, but it's impossible to tell because of the horrible compression.

Oh well. It's not worth debating. :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19470205 Mon, 19 Nov 2007 00:55:36 EDT Re: One in a million shot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19460163 anon : I guess that only the photographer knows for sure.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19460163 Sat, 17 Nov 2007 01:49:09 EDT Re: One in a million shot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19459899 Smatchimo : I thought that too, but i think its the fact that one bird is actually flying at a different angle than the others is just whats throwing me off. one is going more to the right of the picture than the other top two that seem to be going "into" the picture.

Real or manipulated?!!

I have to agree with that question... I think the helping hand of Photoshop was at play here. There's something just "not quite right" about that photo. :huh:

Capturing birds flying in just this way, at just this angle, with just this number of birds, etc, is very rare.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19448609 Thu, 15 Nov 2007 11:17:44 EDT Re: One in a million shot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,19448558 Jodokast96 :

The two birds at the top are at an angle where their torsos are more pronounced that the lower bird - which came in handy for the eyes on the smiley face.

The Birds were aligned at a well proportionate distance from each other.

Only three birds in the shot - more or less birds wouldn't cut it.

Photographer was directly perpendicular to the exhibit, being off by 30 degrees or so would not generate the same effect.

Combination of birds wing positions and the person squeezing the shutter at the right time - Priceless
