Flying Under the Ceiling

I was actually photobombed by these two herons as I was shooting the channel buoy in the fog. In the end, it proved rather fortuitous. I did see them coming across the channel and was able to make some exposure adjustments on the fly.

Indeed!! I love the gold grays and the fog-shrouded sun setting off the ghostly buoy – then the herons – so cool! Good reactions to get the shot!

Photobombed or not the herons make this photograph really interesting . Nice creation.

Very cool, Chris. I like fog and the herons and their reflections fit in very well.

Very intriguing shot, mainly due to the atmosphere. Serene and the fly-by brings some action in the image. Like it ! Cheers, Hans
