Location

Boca Grande Florida

Time

Midday.

Lighting

Very bright sun on the beach. Made for very fast shutter speed.

Inspiration

The Great Blue Heron has so many colors and is such a graceful bird in flight.

Editing

Very little cropping.

In my camera bag

Cameras, cleaning equipment, extra batteries in a weather proof case.

Feedback

Spend a lot of time at the beach. The birding opportunities are endless.
