Slow day at the egret rookery, 10 years ago. This feather drifted by and I shot it.

Just for maybe a smile or two!

Tiny tonal tweaks in LR. Into PS for Topaz Denoise and a huge crop – to 3% (sic) of the full frame.

Here’s the original frame.
Gooud thing there werent any tree swallows around. They would have snagged it before you could shoot. A very fun shot, Diane.
Oh – good thought, @Dennis_Plank! This was in early May and I don’t generally see swallows here until maybe June, but maybe I haven’t been paying attention. As the weather gets warm and the bugs come out, we often get flash mobs of them in the evenings.
Good timing and good detail. I guess one could wonder what just preceded the feather falling from the sky.
Thanks, @Allen_Brooks. Maybe something like this (from a different day).
This is mysterious in that it could be floating on water or down from the sky. Either way, the detail is great. I love the simplicity.
