I previously worked as a news and sports photographer. Recently I have been enjoying wildlife photography. My approach toward bird photos is similar to sports photography. I attempt to capture mostly action and hopefully a unique perspective.
I think the heron knew what he was doing, positioning himself to get the best light on his handsome face. He is not as vain as the alligators, but close.
Wowwww fantastico, uno scatto incredibilmente bello!!!
Ciao, Pat
Grazie Mille Pat!
Superb photo, Phil! Nice light on the eye!
Thanks much Gareth I appreciate it!
lovin the light on this 🙂
Glad you liked it! 🙂
Phil how do you keep the salt out of your camera? I love this picture!
I think my camera is like the alligators here, they both have become quite acclimated to salt water. 😀
Thanks much for checking this out Andy!
You have captured the light so beautifully in this shot of one of my favourites, Phil!
Thank you Maggie, the blue heron is always a favorite of mine too!
Really beautiful, like a model in studio.
He was posing like it was a studio shot. Such a smart boy!
Beautiful light, Phil!
Thanks a million Gracie!

Oh wow I greatly appreciate that Gunta, thank you!
Lovely Phil!
So glad you enjoyed the heron shot Adrian!
Stunning shot, Phil. He looks very pensive. 🙂
He looks like he might still be hungry. 🙂 Just one more fish would top off the evening nicely.
Gorgeous light Phil!
I appreciate you checking it out and glad you liked it!
Saved the best light for last. Awesome.

No words. Beautiful and stunning don’t cover the feeling I have. And those long head feathers…..
This heron knew exactly how to make the most of the lighting to highlight his handsome features. 🙂
