Read MoreGreat White Egret In Motion
Handheld, ISO lowered to get slow shutter speed. The purpose being to get a shot that showed motion. I think I did it, smile. Kind of surprised myself.
I replaced the other one with this same photo, cropped a bit more w a horizontal rotation. Now I like the composition, unless someone thinkgs the bird should be higher or lower.
Worked up in PS gently, so as not to lose the inherent goodness of the original. The only problem was that the wings wanted to be blue, bright blue. I figured that out, and I was done.Great White Egret

local pond
on my way to photograph birds at the marsh, I saw this. Brought my car to a screeching halt. (I was only around the corner and down the block from my house).
This pond is often scummy, but it was clear the other day, and there was just this one egret. Cool, huh? ginger
