“ Got my eye on you! ”
The Egret is a beautiful bird. It's very majestic. Instead of concentrating on the entire bird, I decided to submit a closeup of the head and the eye. I just liked this picture the best. I used a monopod instead of a tripod for better mobility.

    What a great shot! The framing of the crane in parallel with the reed in the background is great to tie both together. Subtle framing and well done!

    I enjoyed this submission, and I’m looking forward to what’s next.
