Hi,

had the fortune to mix some pleasure with business a couple of weeks ago in Flroida. Got in a couple of mornings. This series is from one early morning. Egret was frolicking on the beach fishing.

Cheers.
Gene

    bowdown.gif As always your shots are excellent. But #5 is really great. The highlight and shadow detail are both so good in it. Thanks for sharing.

    Outstanding series. Not sure which I like best, but it is neat seeing the legs below the water in that one shot.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Yes that is the funny dancer. So fun to watch and hard to capture while dancing. They are all over the place.
    Very very nice images.
    Best Regards

    Absolutely perfect! It's really hard to pick one, but I like the lighting on the body and the pose in the first shot......like seeing the feet in the water in the 2nd. Great clarity and sharpness! :saurora

    Wonderful sereis, Gene. Amazing lighting on the egrets face - WOW. And I really like seeing the feet under the water in the second shot.

    Thanks for sharing these.
