About the Image(s)

This was taken about 50 weeks ago, when on a cruise within the Caribbean. We had one day at Dominica, which is quite a wildlife destination. We were walking in a loop to the Botanical Gardens (saw humming birds there) and spent ages at a river where there were plenty of birds looking for a snack. This Great White Egret was one such one - I took 2 or 3 shots of it being successful fishing. I chose this for this purpose as I like it caught just flying off with its catch - as you can see, I nearly missed it! With cropping relatively significantly, I used the RAW file through Topaz Photo Ai, to help with the image size post-crop, then developed it in Lightroom. Settings - 1/2,000 f6.3 ISO 1,250, after a 1/3 exposure compensation and at 800mm FF, using my Olympus gear.
