Beautiful herons and powerful raptors in flight

Well, after flying pigs and tumbling asteroids, I though a few photos of our feathered friends (somewhat closer to home) was in order, so here they are!

The longer lens certainly increases the opportunity for better bird in flight photos, although I now have to learn how to process them. I’ve been struggling with birds against a featureless cloudy sky, a blue sky, ruffled water, still water, water with mangrove reflections, etc. and it has been quite interesting experimenting with CS3 and exploring what works…and what doesn’t.

Thanks for looking. All with the 400mm F5.6

Cheers

Dennis
