Hi Izzie,

I'm so happy you enjoyed viewing these gorgeous birds. I'm so very fortunate to have the opportunity to photograph them. It's truly an honor to be in their presence.

Best regards,

tony

Hello James,

Thanks very much. This is a Snowy Egret. They certainly can strike a dramatic pose! I often title this photo "Snowy Egret Ballet."

Take care,

Tony

Here's a series from my "CAPTIVE" bird collection. In these controlled settings it's always enjoyable to hopefully make the subjects appear, well, less captive! I hope you enjoy them.

A few more I wanted to share.

Black & White For Your Delight!

In this set I've included a few of my favorite water sparkle (starburst) photos and believe they're excellent candidates for black & white conversion. My goal is to find the point in the exposure where the image begins to gradually transition into the dreamlike realm of a silhouette. In this case, I don't want the subject to go completely black. I hope you enjoy this set of images!

Long time, no post! Hope all is well. Here's a few more of my favorite moments with the living works of art that are otherwise known as birds!

Best regards,

Tony
