Green Heron Blur

[Dave Phillips]

Hope this is right forum for this, mod please move if elsewhere is more approprite
Not manipulated, but different.....looks like brush strokes to me

Amazing what's under those feathers.......even a blurry peek is revealing.
My wish is that the eye was really sharp, but there is movement everywhere
400mm, ISO 800, 1/125, f/5.6

Excellent composition, eye very sharp. As you say, different.
Very nice.

Love the shakie, you got it sharp where it counts!

[Robert Amoruso]

I have tried this many times at slow shutter speeds with shaking birds, some good and some not. You nailed great here Dave.

[Alfred Forns]

Not sure how you were able to pull this one off but I like it !!!! Big Congrats !!!!

[Cindy Cone]

Very interesting, Dave! I like it a lot.

[Dave Phillips]

thank you for comments....I have noticed sometimes herons and egrets keep their head almost motionless when doing this.
Think they try to keep focused vision

Very nice action here. Love the colors and composition...:D
