I went to see for myself after work, and after reading this piece. I saw you in the water. And understand why you do it - it was absolutely mesmerising! Thank you for bringing it to my awareness.
Those images are brilliant Finn. I especially like the image with the helter skelter!!! It must be amazing to have the birds literally fly over you, we have a couple of murmurations at present in GY but they are in town, nonetheless it is fascinating to watch. I have been lucky enough to hear that swoop sound whilst out and about in the broads, one of nature's marvels.
Thanks Jon, really appreciate it. It’s quite a silly place to try and take pictures from, but the view of the murmuration feels really unique and immersive. Very addictive.
Amazing images Finn and I love the film at the end.
Starling murmurations are amazing to witness, just the sound of all those wings. I have seen a few in Somerset but can only imagine the extra level of magic that must come with seeing a murmuration from the water.
Amazing! Beautiful photos. I just accidentally captured an amazing murmuration on video a week ago - and it had such a response. I wrote a couple of articles on it, but honestly it's hard to put into words. However, I think you described it perfectly.
Beautiful images Finn! What an amazing feeling to be fully immersed in their dance looking up from the sea - I'm part envious and part relieved that I'm too sensible to get into that ice cold water to get a photograph! :-)
Enchanting!
Thank you Félicia.
Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing these photos. What’s your gallery called?
Thanks Miriam. It’s called Brighton Photography, on the beach by the West Pier. www.brightonphotography.com.

That's fantastic! So pleased that you got to experience it for yourself.

Fabulous shots! I like your (physical) perspective too—with blurred water in the foreground.
Thanks Mike. It’s a really fun perspective to see it all from. Makes a good change from standing on the beach or the pier.
Wow! Amazing photos! I love it!
Thanks. Much appreciated.

Thanks Gill. I hope the video gives some idea of the feeling of being there under it all. An addictive winter pursuit.
This is Indeed beautifull :) Tnx for doing this!

Thanks Lin. I’ll do the swimming so you don’t have to!
Beautiful suff. I'm travelling at the moment and it's making me miss home. In a good way. :)
