Awesome Capture! Wonderful shot of this Herron in Flight!

Amazing shot. Very beautiful bird. Hard to get them sharp when they are flying past!

PRO+

Great! Awarded and voted.

The focus is just perfect but I do feel it is rather tight in the frame. More space ahead of the bird would have given more feeling of the bird travelling.

PS. I would be very proud of this image if it was mine ;-)

amazing shot!
