again let’s do a panning…♫ black crowned night heron from bali♫

wooow amazing shining eye, a wonderful framing too!
fantastic motion abstraction!woooow!
Sunset colors on the water! Great!
authentic closeup, never seen before
the heart of the photo
you must speak BIRD in their language b/c you convince them to do and be the most beautiful things!
is that a fish in his mouth?
Superb. Movement colour atmosphere it's got it all
again let’s do a panning…♫  black crowned night heron from bali♫ by bocavermelha-l.b..
the eyes, shining like torches, suddenly changed its route through the air, into my direction… this bird was flying smoothly along the lagoon, clinging a fish with its beak, a perfect poser for a pan shot. but, damnit! :( i’ve lost the point of focus on its eye! lol it was an extraordinary sight, seems like no body, just the eye. -all right, today I have a quote for you from a great wildlife photographer: a photographer is a hunter, but one who doesn’t kill anything. With your camera, lead your bird in flight the way a duck hunter leads his game bird. *Rulon E. Simmons.
handheld and full frame, some panning info here
Blackcrowned- night heron - Nycticorax nycticorax
photography taken from a tree branch in Nusa Dua
Bali – Indonesia - Southeastern Asia


Better view at… / Um close melhor no... Original Size

façamos um pan (panoramar?), novamente...♫
os olhos, brilhando como tochas, subtamente mudou sua rota pelo ar, em minha direção... este pássaro voava suavemente ao longo da lagoa, com um peixe seguro em seu bico, um poser perfeito para uma foto em panoramica de ação. mas, caramba! :( eu perdi o ponto de foco em seu olho! rsrs foi uma visão extraordinária, parecia como se não tivesse corpo, só o olho. - bom, hoje tenho uma citação para vocês, de um grande fotógrafo da vidaselvagem: um fotógrafo é caçador mas, que não mata nada. com a sua câmera, conduz o seu pássaro em vôo do mesmo jeito que um caçador de pato conduz a sua ave de caça. *Rulon E. Simmons. o negócio é sempre manter os olhos abertos e prestar muita atenção, tbm!rsrs :P
na mão e enquadramento original, algumas infos sobre panoramica aqui
Garça-noturna ou Goraz - Nycticorax nycticorax
fotografado do galho de uma árvore em Nusa Dua
Bali – Indonésia - Sudeste Asiático

It is the great panning shot! Well, okay, the eye is out of focus, but it gives the feeling of motion! Even the water surface is beautiful!

w0000w! awesome, thank you everyone ~ ~! panning in the wildlife photography is something that lately i’m in a real fascination. i’m glad you’ve enjoyed this photo! again, thanks zillions for your visit, comments and favs! see you later!

w0000w! impressionante, meu obrigada à todos ~ ~!
panorama de ação em fotografia da vida selvagem é algo em que ultimamente eu ando fascinada. fico feliz por vocês gostarem desta fotografia! novamente, obrigada aos zilliões pelas visitas, comentários e favs! eu ando tão atrasada com os comentários, que estou fazendo uma ronda pelos photostreams. vejo vcs mais tarde!

@mimbrava
yes, Mim! i was seated on a tree’s branch using a sit-harness (security positioning belt with seat) firmly hooked to a rope that was tied in the main trunk, well, this is my resource for most of my close-ups of inflight shots or maybe it is truth that lately i’ve being very similar to a monkey… hahah cos i’m eating too much bananas! lol cheers, my dear!

@amkhosla
inspiration for you? w00 h00! that’s something that really i’m flattered by :)… i am honored that someone with your skills would appreciate my work:). i don’t know if you’ve noticed but let me tell you that i’ve used a 105mm micro lens plus a 2X teleconverter in this shot. it’s much efficient than the 80-200mm zoom lens on this kind of shot, i mean, bright light near sunset time. the bird was flying very very near to me so the focus was perfect.... i mess up on point it at the bird's head. *_*

@Techuser
êêêba, João! sim, esta cor avermelhada são os reflexos da luz do sol antes dele ir embora. os balineses falam que é o último carinho (sayam) do sol na água!

I have looked and looked at this image, a wonderful spectacular image, the focus on the eye is amazing for a sweeping bird image as this. It has achieved a quality which many only hope to achieve. Everything is right about this image.

....I've faved and tagged this one "QUALITY" and am hoping you will join and post it to:

aaaaaaaah, pure serenity! the way you have utilised the light in this photo is mesmerising. the heron really does almost blend into the bg, with that blood red eye as the focal point.

the bg.. i dont know how you did it, but you really brought out the right colours so the eye of the heron and the sun on the water are in harmony... it is as if it is painting.

you really know how to choose those tree branches! lol, do you think the fabled bunyip could climb trees as well as you? :P
