Great Egret

[Dana B. Hughes]

Just arrived at the Outer Banks and on my trip out today there were lots of migratory birds on the nature preserve, the only problem was getting close enough... Didn't really do much any editing... I'm not enjoying this Bigma, today is the first day "really" using it.. its soft, does not focus well.. With all these impressive Canon images, I'm thinking of jumping ship lol

D300, Bigma, f/6.3 iso1600 1/2000s... (playing around with settings)

I like the backlite, the pose and colours, also the shadow of the right wing in the left one is a very nice detail, still, the compo looks a bit centered and I find the ambient a little distracting. Congratulaitons!
