Grey heron in flight, Bhigwan, MH, India 

The light was good which helped me to get high shutter speed and freeze the action. The image is captured while crossing the lake from a small boat. PP software used - Adobe Lightroom 

Nikon D200 + Nikon 200-500 f/5.6 

ISO 400 1/1500 s f/5.6 at 500 mm 

Thanks

The water makes a nice background for this shot. Nice pose, also, capturing the wings on the down stroke.

Very nice shot. I like the down wing pose. Interesting Heron. Similar to Great Blue Heron we got here.

Great look at this bird. If you've got some more canvas behind his feet I might go with a slightly wider crop.
