The Wonder of Light

Took this photo of a bird in flight across the pasture near my home. I'm intrigued with the lighting - how the sun flare clipped the bird's right wing and created the bokeh at the bottom left.

That is really interesting! I love the golden color, of course, but you're right about how intriguing the way the sun set up the wing and bokeh.

I had to really look. This is a brilliant catch! Really love those golden tones too!

I agree, I still think that it is a mystery how the reflection ends up. Maybe the bird flipped it over to the left?
