I think that is more of a keeper than you do , Jack, because of its 
information factor. don't recall ever seeing quite that view of that

lovely big bird to full appreciate the wingspan.

Might be fun to double expose somehow on Dan's landing approach shot ;-)

Saw more Egrets this AM than ever before. Some held 'til I got close enough to

the DA55~300. This particular shot will never see a frame and possible never be

I have both exposure and AF set on Spot. This surprised me in that, apparently,

Peso: Egret Brambles

2014-09-23 Thread Jack Davis


Today I took another look at Gray Lodge Wild Life area to see how the flooding 
and migration were proceeding.
I'm wondering, what with our severe drought, if the flooding might be reduced 
or eliminated in some sections.
Too early to tell, but some sections show no flooding at this point.

Saw more Egrets this AM than ever before. Some held 'til I got close enough to 
have a chance at a shot with
the DA55~300. This particular shot will never see a frame and possible never be 
posted on-line again. 

I have both exposure and AF set on Spot. This surprised me in that, apparently, 
I shook the camera 
aim and luckily set off the shutter at just the right instant. Not bad detail 
for about a 50% crop

Thanks, Attila...and, It was only a one frame shot. That's beyond lucky not to

Wish it had contained at lease a mite of drama. 
Have already sent it to the Recycle bin.
