[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I had been down at the other end of the beach taking pictures of rays in the water. When I started back to our camp, I saw this fellow ahead in the distance and started taking pictures. I walked slowly towards it and kept taking pictures thinking that it would get scared and fly away much sooner than it did. I think I took about 40 or more pictures prior to this one. I wanted to get a shot of it as it spread it's wings to fly away, but my Coolpix 990 sometimes needs time to think, so I missed it. This has been cropped a small amount from the original.

Hi David, nice composition and very good capture. I think the colours have suffered a little. I have done a WS. I hope you don't mind and I hope you like it.

David, good shot. Nice composition and I like the pose. I agree with Paul re the colours, but I like it anyway. Good job. TFS
