Re: Egret, Cleared for Takeoff
I keep going back to look at Leveling Off. I'm amazed by the wings -- how the feathers at the tips curve delicately upwards... I especially like the combination of straight lines curves in that one. Both shots give a sense of the bird's grace and power.

Plenty of good bird shooting locations in California. In truth, my the bit of Michigan wetlands where I shot the egret is unremarkable. It's part of the Rouge River watershed, but it's just a brief stretch of undeveloped property between some office buildings and the eight lanes of Woodward Avenue. But I've nailed a number of egrets there and a blue crane as well. It's situated between a number of large lakes, and seems to be a stopover spot for water fowl. It does appear to be abundant with life. When I stopped to see the egret I saw a big carp digging in the bottom of water that wasn't even deep enough to cover his back.
