    Default The King!

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Monday is my day off and so I went to the GBH Families again, trying to get some flight pictures with nest building material in their beaks.
    But I was too late; I think, they finished the building activities and start breeding.
    But I was able to make that picture of the King of the Herons....

    Canon Mark III / 500mm /4.0 + 1.7 TC
    f 8 / 1/1000 sec. / ISO 800

    Nicely designed with the triangle effect. You have cut off the bird on the lower right. EXP good with the king's wings raised nicely. Was this photographed in Germany?

    Ah, that feels much better. Best to include the virtual body parts even if we cannot see them. I believe that your birds are GHs (Grey Herons) not GBHs...

    I like the repost. The composition and poses are interesting despite the steep angle and if I remember correctly then these are grey herons.
