Merganser Air Dance

Here’s an image of a pair of hooded mergansers (Lophodytes cucullatus) that I photographed years ago. It was an overcast day, the birds were far off, and my gear wasn’t nearly the quality of what I use now. The original file had quite a bit of noise, but after smoothing it out, the image took on a painterly quality that I find really appealing.
