Somewhere Over the Heron...Way Up High...

Ha ha! Week of birds here on NWG's! Heron from the highest level of the observation deck at Gatorland. What a beautiful bird! It was a cloudy day, so to freeze the action I used ISO 800. A bit grainy. I used Noise Ninja on the background and left the grain on the bird so I wouldn't smooth the feathers out. The blah background is the murky pond. Hopefully, the colors of the heron make up for it.

Fine Feathered Friends

The Camera Club went to Gatorland in Kissimmee, FL for its monthly field trip. There is a large rookery at Gatorland. This cute trio are baby Great White Egrets. It was a beautiful overcast day...great for photographing. I did a little cropping and applied Topaz's Simple Pop filter.
