Purple Heron
What an amazing place to be. Lots of Herons flying over. The way they land looks like they never land before
Tonight the sky was clouded and I had to set the iso to 500. Hope to go back when the sun is more present.
iso 500 1/320 sec. F7.1

A really beautiful shot Edwin, one I'd be proud to have in my collection.
Would you mind telling me where you took the photo please?

Kind Regards

Beautiful shot, I love the complimetary colours, the slight movement in the wingtip and the overall feel of the image. Lovely
