Bolsa Chica Blue

Gallery: AvianPosted December 4, 2017144 views5 comments
The light was really nice as the sun started coming up Saturday at the Bolsa Chica Wetlands Preserve in Southern California.  I really like the yellow green of the ground cover against the soft blue of the water in this one. This GBH was extremely cooperative, maybe too cold to move around much yet. Canon 60D, f11, 1/160 sec, iso 640, +.03 EV, 100-400 ISL ii, at 200 mm, 85% of original frame.

Lovely, Ed.  A rather tropical look with that water color.  Superb detail throughout.  Well done.

Nicely composed image image.  Good color and detail.  Bolsa Chica is an exceptional photo venue.

Ed: beautiful detail and tones in the bird, especially so when viewed large. The pose and composition are excellent. Richard
