Description
Searching the mangroves for birds far off the beaten path, I saw this white Egret and he was not for the idea of standing still for photographs!! He immediately took to the air and flew past me! As he did I managed to get this lovely photo! You can see the shadow of the birds head on his outside wing. I digitally blurred the background so the bird would stand out!! I hope you enjoy "Clear For Take Off"!! Photo shot in Apollo beach, Fl.

Exquisite capture. Love the monochromatic use of grey tones and the enhancement which made the image even more dramatic.

Wonderful take-off shot, Marvin, the grayscale conversion is adding to the photo's beauty, great details of the Egret's plumage. Likes.
