I was 1 for 12 on this series. This Heron was flying beside us as we travelled at full throttle (about 40mph). Zero photoshop on this.

But this 1 is a winner. Racing with herons sounds like fun. V

OK, earlier this year you dangled over a dam on the Ganaraska River and now your shooting from a boat at high speed! Who knew photography could be such an extreme sport - Nice ! Great sense of motion on this one! V.

Start calling you the Birdman. Great work in clocking this guy.

Great capture! The blurred background nicely complements the motion. =V=
