Sunset

[Alfred Forns]

From Anhinga Trail ENP Birds have been coming back to roost in large numbers again, this image was made right at sunset. If you want some color in the bg adjusting the camera exp is the way to go. Prior to this image I was going close to plus two with better light on the bird but no color in the sky. Manually set at + 1/3
Comments welcome and much appreciated

I am becoming a bigger fan of these blurs Al.....but you know my love of the crop tool......so I won't say it! You have me believing I have to try this! Thanks for the motivation!

They are addictive Roman .... and also want to thank you again for that fine duck image !!! It is seriously good !!! Will have to post mine when I'm sure Artie is out of town .. he says I have an incurable perversion to posting domestics !!! :)

Will it be better if I told him I took it in Mexico???...I googled it.....what the heck is the difference between the wild and the domesticated/feral???
