Egret at sunset...

Canon EOS 1000D, Canon EF 300mm f/4L IS USM, full frame
SS 1/800
F 5.6
ISO 400

Since the subject was far, I decided to use F 5.6

The shadow of the bird is interesting. Wish there was something more in the image to hold the interest, maybe a fish in its mouth :). Maybe you could have tried a lower angle if possible. Thanks for sharing.

[Bibhav Behera]

I agree with you Mrudul. There was a steep drop beyond where this was taken, so I couldn't go lower.

It would have been great if you could have taken a close up. Positioning at the top right of the frame would have been better. Depth of field increases with distance as well.

Cheers,
