Egret - breeding colours

[Stu Bowie]

Just an Egret flying against a blue sky. I was experimenting between manual and AV with EC on 0, and although I have great results with Manual, this was a better flight posture with AV and EC on 0. Taken at 6.51am two weekends ago.

excellent exposure Stu, nice wing positions too, overall the angle is a bit steep for me

Can't add anything to what Arash said. Great exp on the whites

Stuart:

Always good to keep experimenting with your setup. There is no one perfect setup for every situation, and its is easy to get stuck in a rut about how you do things.

Good comments from Arash.

cheers

Nice details on the wing. Exposure, pose, comp all good, and I too would prefer a less steepish angle on the subject.

Thanks a stack guys and Gail. Steep angle noted.
