What are the odds of that shot?
The angle and the birds at the exact moment...
********************
I’m not taking anything away from the photographer cause it’s an amazing shot. But as a photographer myself, I can guarantee that that was not a single shot that was timed perfectly. He/she had their camera set on continuous auto focus and shutter release. They probably burned up 500 frames and then picked the best one. Hopefully it was digital and not film. LOL

I understand that. I didn’t think he had a Polaroid. :)
It’s more the angle and the formation itself.

But it’s still real - a moment in time saved ‘forever’.

(I remember taking a picture of what a solar eclipse looked like reflected on the sidewalk through the leaves of a tree, like these - though in person, the little orbs with crescents are much more distinct and amazing):
