I was fortunate to photograph some beautiful snow buntings on Cape Cod yesterday. They were eating seeds from tall beach grasses.

I think the pano works well on this one. I particularly like the arching grass. Beautiful colors.

Oh, this is so peaceful and colorful for a winter scene. Love how its standing on the seed head and making the stem bend in a graceful arch. Congrats on a great catch!

Hi Greg,

This is a very special image as it describes the harshness of winter. I like the pano crop and the stem of grass weighed down by the bunting. Well done

Sweet minimalist feel. Wonder if you could spot heal out those few twigs in front of the bird.
