Shot at the beach ,Washington state coast. This was shot early morning. Sun was just popping over horizon and flock of Dunlins zoomed by. They are so much fun to watch when they fly just above the water and when they change direction it is like cloud that is flashing.
I cropped the image 1:3 ratio Panorama. The colors were incredible,
the blue water of the Pacific and the orange glow reflecting on the water..almost like painting. Light was still fairly low so I had to shoot ISO-3200.
1D4, SIGMA 500mm f/4.5 EX DG HSM
1/500, ISO-3200, f/5, handheld.

Please click on the image for uncompressed view, thank you.

The warm morning light on the deep blue Pacific forms a wonderful painterly backdrop for this lovely scene, Ludo. This appears like a painting to me. Very well done!
