[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Individual Little Egrets were fishing this estuary just upstream from Kinsale harbour. I took quite a few shots trying to get the yellow of the foot on the picture. This gives the impression of movement. It was some distance away hence the big focal length.
Camera settings:- ISO 100, Spot metering, AV, Auto exposure, Manual White balance (cloudy), 1600mm focal length, 2 x converter.
