In the morning this rookery, or the spot Egrets prefer, the sun light is right in your face. Most of the time you have to play with the angles and settings. Panning a long flight sequence means at some point the shot is pure sun… great for your eyes.

You can get some nice bokeh and backlit shots though.
Yes to all you say here. Also there’s that pesky challenge of capturing enough detail in white feathers like those of Egrets and Swans. Great photo! Best, Babsje
Thank you 🙂 I get lot’s of practice, and opportunities here. I also get a lot of deletes LOL. Comes with the territory.
