I saw the egret on the rock and of course went to shoot it. Promptly, a group of tourists positioned themselves where you see them. When shooting, I always figure, go with what's in front of your lens - so they got included for a strange juxtaposition in the image.
A good choice and a good rule of thumb. I agree with you, I think the family is what brings a lot of interest to the shot. Otherwise, it would just be another picture of a bird.
another brilliant shot alicia . i'm loving the colours and clarity .. i actually like the ppl in the shot .. i especially love their shadows too & that bird is gorgeous .. are his feet yellow .?. at first i thought it was some weird seaweed .. i wish i could zoom right in to see ..:)
This is excellent Alicia - for some reason I always imagined these birds to be a lot larger. Shame about the tourists. You must have been fairly close to him and yet he seem focused on finding that elusive fish. Hope the little boy in red didn't scare him off.
