I was taken aback at it's beauty.
Here's a great article on motorsports photography describing a
situation in which "machine-gunning" is the only way to go. Scott
Jones is one of the top pros in the business (as you'll notice when
you see his photos) and in this blog entry he describes the making of
one particular shot.

getting the one you want. In other situations, multiple exposures can be
helpful. For example, when shooting the great blue heron a coupl

Really? Is that the way you think most people get 'good shots'?
To get good shots, one must take shots, but the secret isn't taking a

Very nice! The color similarity of the BG rocks & the bird is a nice add.

G'day all
I never get sick of seeing these birds. They're very common but they
are such elegant and attractive creatures.

You've done a nice job with this one. The heron stands out
sufficiently from the background. The old adage holds true 'You can
never have too much focal length!'

Monochrome look is just fine for me. Low lighting is a little stark, but the
heron's (?) shape plays well against the highly textured boulders.
