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…

Stunning! The colors. And of course I love Mr. A enjoying the sunset lighting. What a great shot. 🙂
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. 🙂
You know him, he just thinks he needs to be involved in *everything*.
Great shot of that elusive and rare Blue Egret, Phil. 🙂
That back lighting gets funny out there at night.
Especially gorgeous! Wish I could hang this one on my wall!
Well I’m happy you enjoyd this evening scene!
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.
What a stunning capture!
Thanks Amy!
The colours are perfect, Phil. Doesn’t Mr. A look innocent at a distance?
I’m happy you enjoyed this shot Andrew and our friend Mr. A is an expert at putting on that innocent look. 🙂
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
Thanks a million for the kind words Edna! And you know we gotta love our pal Mr. A!
Very beautiful-Thanks Phil!!
Glad you like it, thanks!
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. 🙂
Wonderful Phil !!!!!!
Have a nice sunday
Thanks you Sophie! Hope you enjoy your Sunday as well!
Very beautiful. And grand.
I appreciate the kind words, thank you!
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)
Glad you liked this egret pic Maggie!
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. 🙂
I’m very happy you enjoyed seeing this egret photo with our sneaky friend back there.
Such a perfect shot, just stunning!
That is so kind of you! Thanks a bunch! 🙂
Beautiful shot. The egret’s flight is quite graceful.
Beautiful colors, and a beautiful bird…great photo!
