Great Blue Portrait
THE STORY
No two moments in Creation ever the same, if even similar. It is impossible to know which animals will be calm and comfortable in our presence, or shy and skittish.
“This great blue heron was in search of nesting material along the beach, with its nest a few hundred yards inland from my position. It had absolutely zero concern with my presence, and proceeded to stroll almost directly beside me. I typically eschew capturing wildlife in tight crops of this sort, but this moment was unique. This capture isn’t actually cropped at all—this is the original capture, which reveals just how close this heron came to me.
“There is much to appreciate about this portrait, from the breeding colors and plumage, to—my favorite—the rising sun and its reflection on the water visible within the heron’s pupil. Stunning!”
