Day 156

Tonight it was looking like we may get a storm so I went to the lake to see if I could get a shot of some lightning. I have never gotten a decent lightning shot and hope to accomplish that someday. While I was there though, I saw a flock of birds hauling a__ down the outside of a reed line in the lake. I zoomed , I shot and here it is. I experimented with this one . I wanted to get the softer feel of a painting. (BTW, no lightning)
