I think you found your calling as a bird photographer. Another great shot! The interaction between the two blue herons and their wing positions really make this image. I can't think of any suggestions on how to improve it. Question: Did you use a burst mode when shooting this image or a single-shot mode? Posted: 05/08/2022 17:22:24
For this, burst mode, quick 3 shots, pulse, then another round, found that most effective. Thanks Posted: 05/11/2022 20:27:39
Your bird photos have been excellent! You stopped the action well and caught the moment. Great details and clarity. I wouldn't change a thing! This would be a winner. Posted: 05/11/2022 20:28:43
Are you sure this wasn't a conflict between two birds or a moment in a mating ritual?! Hand-holding and getting this quality is impressive. Posted: 05/18/2022 22:05:35
