Music in the Sky

This was taken a couple of years ago looking toward the power lines on an overpass in Austin, Texas.
The line-up of birds reminded me of whole notes (rather monotonous ones ;^) on the lines of a music score.
I manipulated the image, using PS and Nik software to create this version.
The most recent comment I received on it, was that it reminded the viewer of guitar strings ;^) so I invite all of you to use your imagination with this image.
Best wishes,

Carol

I love it! At first glance I, too, thought it was guitar strings but then had to read your description. Now that is art. Thanks for sharing.

nice job on the processing, I like the glow of the birds and the wires. The star highlights are a great touch, IMO.

Wow, Carol, this is so creative. Even without any extra processing this would stand out. Well done. Congrats on the EP. :toast:

Cool quasi abstract take. Nice use of colors and gold glow makes it pop.
