    I was fortunate to have photographed this little egret during my mid-winter trip to La Jolla; he was very dependable; faithfully making an appearance each day at precisely 7:00 AM. Canon 5D III, 17-40mm lens @ 40mm, RRS tripod, cable release, ISO 100, 1/5 second @ f/18, January 19, 2016 @ 9 AM, processed in LR, image size 4684 x 2839.

    A wonderful setting and you have pulled off an outstanding image aided by the use of a slow shutter speed and composition. One of the best bird images I have seen.
    Well done Steve!

    Wow that's a beautiful image Steve, very well done, I just cannot imagine getting that close for so long to an egret in this country. the sea and the rocks are gorgeous and the egret just seems to be enjoying the view.

    Hi Steve, I like your thinking here with the slow ss. The Egret is well placed in the frame, and stands out nicely against the rocks. Lovely colour to the rolling wave.

    A real beauty Steve! I like the composition, setting, sharpness, bird placement and the wave at the top really adds to the image.
