"Blue Herons on Lake Fork"
These incredible birds build their nests in the tops of huge dead trees in the boat lane at Lake Fork. All three birds landed in the nest and we watched as the momma and baby (I assume) pushed dad out. It was quite comical to watch.
This was taken handheld with a 18-105mm DX lens with VR on lens and camera, while standing in a boat that is stopped but still moving slightly. I am struggling to get clear, sharp detailed shots of these amazing creatures from the boat.
Any suggestions, tricks?
Thank you all so much for your very kind comments on my "Bessies Keys" photo. It means so much to have my shots looked at by such talented photographers.
Enjoy this day, it will not be repeated
