This Egret had just left the shore and by the time I turned the Zodiac around for a head on shot, it left the branch. The photograph was taken on July 15 at 7:50 AM on theOne Mile River.
Thank you for stopping by.

Technical Details

Canon R5, Canon 100-500mm & 1.4ext, f8, 420mm, -1.3 EV,1/1600, ISO 1000. The shot is cropped by 60% and I adjusted the exposure, highlights, and midtones in DXO Photo Lab 5.

I really like the shadows behind the backlit wings. Nice composition with the diagonal elements.

Nice extended wing position . The light coming through the wings brings out some nice detail. Also like the perch it took off from.
