Tim; I really enjoy the egrets but I especially appreciate the added bonus of the dragonfly. Good job capturing this moment, I really like it!
Yes, that dragonfly is pretty cool! I suppose a lower angle would have been good too, but that's just me...I'd certainly be happy with this.
Thanks Daniel, I was already in 3" of mud and didn't want to get any lower, sure would have been nice though. :S3:Quote:

The dragonfly is really cool. I wonder how it would look with lower angle. Thanks for sharing.
Love looking at these birds - they are showy! I always seem to get them in water that has all kinds of debris that distracts and I really like the way the water looks in this one. In addition the dragonfly in his mouth adds a lot to the frame. I am curious as to how you compensate for exposure on these white birds. I have been underexposing but feel my exposures aren't really spot on at this point. Do you bring down the highlights much in post typically?
