The shot was intended to show the expression of the bird in the foreground, the White Ibis. As it watched one of the other birds roosting there being attacked by an Alligator. As you can see the other birds in the background share the same reaction only in a Depth of Field view. The birds to the bottom are in motion to take flight from what is occuring. The birds immediatly behind the Ibis are a Snowy Egret then a Great Egret. Image Captured in Swamps of Southeast Louisiana. Full 300mm Capture then Heavily Cropped. Thanks in advance to all who view,comment,and vote. Much Appreciated!

Shadows are a bit black, but this could be your best bird shot so far!

El HDR no es exagerado, y el efecto dimensional es estupendo.
