Stork Love

[susanschermer]

Captured this sweet family moment at the Alligator Farm. Sorry the whole chick isn't in view, but the tenderness of the preening was what I was after.

Tenderness you got Susan !!! It was a treat this weekend !!!!

Well composed and carefully framed !!! Sure with the stork on the right had his/her head twisted to see the eyes !!! I like the slight separation between the parents !!! Best possible image from your position !!!

Wasn't an easy shot to get Susan, they were up there !

Positives mentioned above. I would like to have seen the right stork's leg not touching the image edge. SOme selective sharpening on the right stork's head would help too. Nice work with a difficult image.

Hello Susan,

Yes! Tenderness is very present within this really nice picture! Great details and perfect exposition letting us see all the nice white tones of the plumage... I agree with Robert about the right leg being too close to the frame...

BTW, where is Alligator Farm???

Nice capture and those storks sure stayed at the tree tops.

The Alligator Farm is in St Augustine, FL

Actually I think this is a better capture according to your constructive criticism. Thanks to all, and it was really swell being with all of you in St. Aug.

Hi Susan,

Second post works better for me... looks more intimate.

Take care and hope to see you soon!
