    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!"

    I think I read back in the thread that herons get to play at Egret Fest. Here's a night heron that's was pissed at something. I didn't see what it was. Maybe me...

    I'm just learning to do birds so take it easy on me :tough

    Thanks, Harry. You couldn't cue one up any simpler than this one. Shady background and the bird decided to strike a pose while standing in a patch of sunlight.

    Great idea for a thread. There are some awsome images displayed here.clap.gif

    I like Meatloaf too but he ain't in the same league as Springsteen. Of course, it does no good trying to talk sense to a pineapple pizza person.

    Great Blue Heron. Shot today and my first from the species! (And first bird in the wild!)

    Still learning to manual focus on the fly so focus is a bit soft. But couldn't help but share!
