I rolled out of bed early yesterday to shoot in the early, golden hour light. Well, the hour only lasted about 15 minutes due to clouds that rolled in but was still worth the effort.
Golden Hour Great Blue Heron. Nikon Z 8, Nikkor 180-600mm at 600mm in DX mode, 1/125, f/6.3, ISO 220, manual mode, -1 EV handheld. Busch Wildlife Area, Weldon Spring, MO, 3.21.2024
Thanks for the 3 thumbs up.

I normally don't like portrait oriented landscapes but in this case--well shot and presented
Thanks Curmudgeon. I can’t remember shooting many landscapes in portrait orientation but wanted to include the redbud tree. It just seemed the way it should be.
