Hi Chi,
An excellent in flight shot on this heron. Beautiful colors in the plumage in this nice soft light. Nice sharp detail with the small amount of wing blur giving a nice sense of motion. Looks great!

Great capture ! Must be very difficult to get a good photo of a flying bird, but you have done it perfectly. Very good sharpness and details, nice colors, nice POV and excellent composition. It is really a wonderful bird. Well done !

Hello Chi,

Great action shot of this beautiful heron! Focus, bg, dof, details cannot be more perfect! The colours looks so natural too! I like the little droplets behind the bird showing that he just started to fly...

TFS.

Missed you and your superlative images for some time, Chi.
This is a great shot as usual from you. I am particularly impressed with the tautness of posture in flight which you have captured so well here.

Hi chiliu ,

An amazing capture of this heron in flight , really love the composition , guess this guy just started his flight as u captured this shot coz of the minute water dots near by the long legs.Real good action shot.

Very nice inflight capture Chi, the DOF is perfect with the wings in motion. The lighting is well chosen for this awesome capture. :)

Hi Chi
You were sorely missed this last 2½ weeks, so it is good to see a posting again, and an immaculate one as well. Such grace and beauty, captured by your lens, is a sheer pleasure to behold.
The composition is perfect and you managed to capture such detail with this in-flight shot. The movement in the wings, the razor sharp focus on the head, body & legs, and the droplets of water flying of the back are brilliant. The OOF water surface as BG beautifully enhances the bird while the lighting/exposure was perfectly controlled.
Great work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

C'est un magnifique oiseau que vous nous présentez, Chi. Les couleurs sont surprenantes avec cette dominance de bleu.
Excellent focus, belle composition, un instantané que je voudrais réaliser.
Bravo.

This is beautiful, Chi. Light and colors are very attractive and the movement is just frozen, with an appealing blur on the wings tips. It's not a simple in flight shot, it's also a very artistic image. Very well done!

Hi Chi Liu, this is a lovely shot of a heron in flight. I almost got one myself the other day but that was just an almost ;) so I appreciate the difficulty of getting a shot as good as this. Lovely sharpness, exposure and details. The colours are great and it's a nice composition. I love the water droplets flying from the feet. Very well done :)
