Egret in morning light

This great egret flew by on a beautiful october morning. The light was warm, the reeds were turning brown. Your comments are very welcome.

Beautiful capture Vincent! I really like the spread of the wings and how its left wing dips towards the water. Warmest regards, Todd

Hi Todd,

 

thank you for your friendly comments! The scene presented itself and I was there to shoot it. Kind regards, Vincent

Excellent capture Vincent, and with a good background, and a little reflection.

These photos look easy, but you have to try!

Ciao Massimo

Hi Max,

 

Thanks for your friendly comments! This photo wasn't easy technically, but being ready makes a difference. The result is all that matters when it's what you want to express. Kind regards, Vincent

What a magnificent creature with a huge wingspan! Aside from capturing it in mid-air while on its journey, you also captured its beauty and character. The reeds provide the perfect background. There's also a bonus - a faint reflection of the bird. Vincent, you are both an accomplished photographer and a sensitive naturalist. -- My best always, michael

Beautiful shot and bird, Vincent! I especially like like the birds posture and the hard line of the wings. Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Hi Tatiana,

 

thank you for your friendly comment! It was such a beautiful morning; everything came together. Kind regards, Vincent

Great job of controlling the exposure. The feathers on the egret look great and it is wonderfully separated from the background. Excellent details and presentation, Vincent. Have a great day, Paul.
