Top Gun Birds

After saying I would not try as hard yesterday, I ended up hiking up Blackford Hill at sunset and took about 100 shots. Well, I love taking pics. Booger it.

Hard to avoid the stereotypical tourist shots of Edinburgh which looked fantastic in the light with all the trees glowing and amazing autumn colours.

Just as I was getting cold and the sun had dipped below the horizon I turned back and saw these birds in the afterglow. Still had my polarizer on and the exposure went all wonky, but what the hell. Reminded me of Top Gun for some reason. Ice man you can be my wingman any day.. or something.
