    Congratulations Cheryl!!!

    Finally some clear skies today. I wanted to take advantage of the nice light and low tide so I waded out to the little blue herons but couldn't get close enough when someone came out with there dogs and POOF all the birds gone.(Don't you just love when they do that???) So I headed back out wader boots sticking in the muck and out of nowhere came this great blue right in front of me. He was so close and i was hesitant about removing the 2x in the water so I shot some portraits. He caught this needlefish seconds later and I got the shot. I feel it could use more space but it is full frame and I'm not gonna mess with it. Keeps attention on the catch.I am starting to get more comfortable with manual exposure as well
