Egretta garzetta hunting . NIKON d500, Sigma supertele 300-800, f5,6, 1/2000sec, ISO 100. Thanks for your comment

Excellent shot, Giangiorgio! Glorious dynamic pose and wings presentation ... Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Many thanks Tatiana , I am glad you liked them

Really nice capture of lighting situation, I mean the wing serving as an umbrella! Good technical quality also! Complimenti, Giangiorgio! PDE

Grazie mille Pierre for your interesting comment

Giangiorgio, sadly I didn't have the time to comment on the entire series, so I arbitrarily selected this image. Perhaps it was due to its having the least number of comments. It appears the egret's hunt has been successful, at least at the time you clicked the shutter; it's managed to catch a grub. The image presents the hunt in much more livelier a fashion, given the bird's wings being spread wide and the trail of water drops. I don't know whether the bird is standing on a very shallow spot, but it's darkness contrasts well with the brighter blue of the water. Finally I'm very impressed with the hint of reflects along the shoreline in the background. Outstanding! --My best always, michael --Ciao!

Thank you very much Michael for your beautiful comment, as usual you have observed and described the image in all its details and I am glad that you enjoyed it

Wonderful capture of the action, Giangiorgio. Love the bowed wings and the water spray. Best regards, Paul.

Paul many thanks for your appreciation of my photo, ciao Giangiorgio
