This is an oldie (as you can tell by my equipment) but goodie of a Wood Stork chick photographed from a boat at a nesting rookery. Processing old images reminds me that photography is so much more than just about the most up-to-date equipment. It's just as much about scouting, getting yourself out there, knowing your equipment however old it is, and practicing over and over to hone your techniques.
C & C always welcomed and much appreciated.

Agree with you regarding equipment. This is such a sweet shot of this youngster. It is simply designed, yet full of interest with the details and nice eye. I see something odd going on at the base of his bill (top side), looks a bit blurred, maybe the result of a mask, or a selection? And I would dodge the light in the eye just to liven it up a bit.
Great look at this cute, gangly baby stork. I like the pose with the nice head angle and the background sets him off nicely. It's baby down feathers look like sheepskin.
I too noticed the blurred tip of the bill. Not sure if that was in camera. Nice frame as always Marina.
