GBH: Moon Light Touch Down

Phoenix, Arizona

Great Blue Herons are my favorite birds. I often refer to them as swan/pterodactyls because in the blink of an eye they change from grace and beauty to awkward frizballs and back again to glorious shades of subtle colors and plumage. In this composite, a heron lands in early morning sunlight with a quarter moon in the background. Yes, I cheated because the moon was a little too far to the left to capture it as the heron landed. So I took a picture of the moon and added to complete the picture.
