Description


This Snowy Egret flew right in front of me and I was as unprepared as can be. Only got off one shot and not the best of focus. They are about 24 inches (61 cm) long and with a wingspan of 41 inches (104cm). Photo taken and Green Cay wetlands, west of Boynton Beach. Better focus and details in zoom mode! Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

Still a nice shot, considering how fast you probably had to react. I light the translucency of the feathers, very interesting detail to study. (I think I may have been raytracing too long....)

Sometimes you just got to go with what you have Dana, this is a great shot, I have had situations like this where I have fumbled about to focus and utterly missed the moment my friend. You didn't :}

Wow, for a quick unprepared shot, I'd say you did spectacular. The slight blur looks quite artistic and adds motion to this majestic bird. I think they are so graceful and your shot captures it perfectly.
