Hey gang, I took this at the St. Augustine Gator Farm, FL. in May. This evening the light was magical, with the subjects coming in from every direction. It was surely one of my most productive sessions ever.

Exposure-Spot metered off brightest white highlight-plus 1 comp.
Post production-Capture One Pro, PS

Best all and see you in the field,

Gorgeous, my friend. Wonderful to see you posting. Feather parts, eh? Another idea to stuff in my head and access when needed. You continue to teach without using your voice or keyboard.

Sweet light. The egret looks like peak breeding plumage and colors. Great composition and execution as usual.
