Sunset Flight
This past week I saw this egret flying across the marsh pond which was lit by setting sunlight.
And of course the scene wouldn’t be complete without ‘you know who’ gliding by in the background…

Glad you liked this shot! It seems lately that even when I’m not taking a photo of Mr. A, I’m still taking a photo of Mr. A. 😮

Mr A is doing a lot of photo bombing lately. Great capture of the egret though. 🙂

I though a blue egret too. He looks good against the sunny, orange background. Very relaxing photo Phil.

It’s just what the light sometimes does to white at this time of night.

Nothing quite like the setting sun to make egrets look good.

Of course it’s generally much more flattering to alligators.

The colours are perfect, Phil. Doesn’t Mr. A look innocent at a distance?

Dramatic colors. Amazing lines. How do you create such magic?! I wish this egret can see how you’ve crowned his loveliness. …And of course, a toast to our endearing Mr. A! :p

They sure tuck those long necks gracefully when flying. Beautiful shot as always… and then there’s the lurker!

Yes the egrets tend to fold up those long necks for flying more then the blue herons. All very graceful flyers indeed!
Naturally we have a lurker. That’s what he’s known for. 🙂

The colours in this shot are stunning, Phil! The hint of menace in the background adds that “certain something”! Hope you ok now.

Oh if Mr. A is anything, he is for sure a ‘certain something’ (don’t tell him I said that)

what a stunning colour, Phil, what a beautiful photograph! Glad you pointed out “Mr A” – would have missed him otherwise. I wished I would have fabric in that blue colour – incredible.

Our pal Mr. A has a unique ability to lurk in the background as unobtrusive as possible, that’s his job. 🙂
