Flight Of A Young Blue Heron

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

This is another capture taken the same evening as the previous post. The lighting was soft as the sun was setting and a great opportunity to catch these little heron in flight.

Congats on getting this image. Absolutely perfect wing position, a nice glance toward the lens and wonderfully soft light. Not sure one could get a much better image.

[Lance Warley]

Like others have said...the feet!

Great capture Judy. The feet and the overall softness of the feathers in this light really makes the image. And you got the head turn as well. Very nice.

[Maxis Gamez]

Love the pose and exposure control on this one Judy. Excellent work!

[Jody Melanson]

Beautiful!

Susan this capture was taken at Green Cay late in the day about two weeks ago.

Great pose, details and BG. The wings almost touching each other puts it over the top for me.
