Landing Among the Irises

Uploaded: June 17, 2009

Description

I was able to capture this Great Egret just as he was landing among a bunch of irises. At first, I thought it was a little too soft, but the more I looked at it, it began to grow on me. It gives a feeling a little like a Claude Monet painting.

Exif: F Number: 8, Exposure Bias Value: 0.33, ExposureTime: 1/320 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 400, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 400.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 40D
