I agree, stunning.

Rainy day, and going back through some old images.
I just love photographing these backlite egrets. A different bird than my other postings, same sign. A whole group of these images I have not worked up yet.
I am running out of wall space.
Thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
Gary

Thanks so much, and thanks for reminding me of this image. This was an old battered sign in the lake at Gatorland. It was old enough to have character, and birds perched there frequently. I had a whole series of back lite shots that day- they were beautiful. I was surprised, no one else around me was even pointing their camera that way. I had a blast.
I went back the next week, and the sign had been replaced with a new big ugly one. Birds no longer perch there. Bummer
Shoot it when you see it, you can't go back. I learn that several times a year.

I'm sure making a bad photo would be quite easy if I tried.

I don't even have to try.

This is a stunning image. I can't critique, I can only gaze on it with admiration, knowing that I could never produce anything like it.

Wow, really artistic shot.
