No apologies needed! I appreciate the stories that go along with these challenges. That's a great video you linked - reminds me of my Wisconsin childhood when our family would make driving trips through the Horicon Marsh this time of year to see similar numbers of Canadian Geese.
Really something - thanks KB (and for the previous posting as well). All fit the theme. Wonderful captures.Had the good fortune of being able to take some of the July 4th fireworks from 3 different locations ...
From evelated subway station .. my first time
From Long Island City in Queens
From Brooklyn Heights
2 from Rockefeller center deck
The fireworks atop the Empire State bldg was a surprise
From Manhattan Bridge

Thanks for these. I'm going to say the first appeals to me much more than the second for personal selfish reasons (I'm not a fan of shoveling). Glad to see you're getting mileage out of the supposedly obsolete M6!Brilliant theme for these challenges!
Up in the air
Oh Ab, how the mighty have fallen....
Nice shot. He or she looks definitely caught off guard.
Ready for lift off

That is interesting - either an antennae or a metal Pippi Longstocking. I'm going to look the other way however as far as up in the air (it is stuck to the ground after all...)
This was taken during my daughter's field trip to Washington DC. I believe I took the shot outside the Air & Space Museum, but honestly, I have no idea what it is. If anyone knows please tell me. Thanks.
A fine group of scholars, that is. They (me included) are a tame group.
Metal Pippi Longstocking: love it!!!
More likely an artistic implementation of a lightning rod. Does not look like a shape suitable for an antenna.That is interesting - either an antennae or a metal Pippi Longstocking.

Thank you.
Thanks Kit. Nice variety of subjects. I caught myself looking at the balloons in Morocco. I have a modest case of claustrophobia so such a ride would be definitely off limits. But it must have been spectacular.Entry#1

Nice! And it's nice to be at the right place at the right time. I like the second image as it conveys what's about to happen - you have watch how it all turns out.Exhibits
Nothing planned, got out of the car, I saw them, and my guess was correct, coming in for a landing
