Nature New Light

this was a morning of reflections . I have been trying to be more aware of lighting lately and this just topped the cake for me. All these images were taken between 6:30 and 8 am Skimmers, roseatte spoonbills and woodstorks, all with mirror reflections. I have included probably too many pictures but couldn't decide. My first time after many attempts to get a perfect skimmer line also.. These ones were right in front of me though over and over

These are fantastic shots! I am glad you included all of them, but I am also not sure which one I like the best either. I guess the last one with the pink Spoonbills is the one I keep looking at. Besides the color, I like their eyes.

Thank you, I could have added ten more. maybe I will put some in my gallery sometime. the spoonbills are a treat.im glad they migrate here in the summer. the one with the red eyes is an adult or almost an adult and the other one Is a younger juvenile. the eyes tell all,. that might be why you liked them!!

good idea I will put that name in other publications. thanks, I will have to say there were two of them and they were there for quite a while going right past me many times to give me many opportunities to get the shot(. Even have one grabbinb food.) Highly unusual, but I was there when they were active for a change
