Cormorant Flies Over the Moon by jgpittenger

Cormorant Flies Over the Moon

Or maybe Icarus Returns! I know cormorants aren't very fancy birds but I'm practicing trying to get birds in flight in focus and I thought this was pretty well in focus and I loved the light on him. Perhaps a bit noisy with ISO high. Thanks for all the recent support
amazing, I feel a little jealous :)

I've always liked cormorants. They look great drying their wings. I like the way the underside is lit here.

I love the way the wing tips are spread out. I like cormorants. Nice composition with the moon and the bird and the lovely blue sky.

Outstanding! I love the moon (of course) and the golden light on the bird's breast. It looks like it's "aiming for the moon!"
