I have always fas­ci­nated by these Egret birds. In front of my house there’s will always be flocks of Egret hang­ing around. It use to be just one or two of them few years ago but recently I notice they are get­ting more and more.

    Just wanted to say I think you did an excel­lent job cap­tur­ing them..they look so ele­gant. Ya..that cloud image is really fan­tas­tic too..looks like a bird or some­thing in flight like you said.
    Me on the other hand ..well, I wish I wasn’t so slow catch­ing on. I’d like a pow­er­ful zoom..next cam­era maybe? Cheers–

      Regina Big Hello to you! hugs hugs

      You have the most impres­sive pho­tos and natures on your site!!! I love nature music too!!! ohhh I love the birds chirp­ing!!! I was in the car when I visit your site, I keep look­ing out my car win­dows and look up the trees won­der­ing why the birds are so happy today… I can’t find the bird! I real­ize than it was from your site hahah­ha­haha awesome!!!

      Yes!!!! I totally sup­port­ing you on your next new cam­era!!!! I would sug­gest you to try out a DSLR cam­era… Don’t worry if you never use DSLR before because DSLR has a build in point-and-shoot fea­tures where you can use right out of the box while at the same time learn how to con­trol the rest of the func­tion from semi auto to full man­ual mode.

      Thank you for tak­ing your time to com­ment HUGS

    Good to have egrets right at your door steps.

    In Sin­ga­pore, the only birds I see are crows and pigeons.
    I call them the pest and shit-dropper respec­tively.

    Thanks for stop­ping by my blog! Those egret pho­tos are beau­ti­ful! You did a fine job with your lens. Can I give you a lit­tle tip? With tele­photo lenses espe­cially, you get sharper pic­tures if you use a tri­pod. :) I like the slide show you’ve used to present your pho­tos as well. I’ll have to look into doing that.

      Hello Lisa,

      Thanks for your visit too :)

      I wish I could use a tri­pod with my 70-200mm lens :( Canon did not pro­vide the Tri­pod Mount Ring and to buy it cost about USD150. :( too expen­sive to invest. I’ll keep in mind of the tri­pod usage :) I dont use tri­pod that often as well.

      You have lot of great pho­tos on your blog, Sim­ple­viewer def­i­nitely be a good choice for you :) let me know when you imple­ment it.

      Thank you so much for the tips and for your visit.

      Cheers

        Thanks Net­ster! I’ll let you know if I use Sim­ple­viewer. I may use another method. I’ll have to inves­ti­gate. It’s def­i­nitely a good idea, though.

        Are you sure a tri­pod mount ring would cost that much? I can’t remem­ber how much mine was but I doubt it was even close to that. Oh, well. It’s eas­ier to shoot with­out a tri­pod, that’s for sure. :)

          Hello Lisa,

          On a sec­ond thought you might want to really re-consider if Flash is a thing in response to web stan­dard HTML5. Sim­ple­viewer is base on Flash.

          Apple have ditched Flash on iPad and for some good rea­son lot of big web­sites are already imple­ment­ing HTML5 stan­dard. (http://www.apple.com/ipad/ready-for-ipad/ for list of web­sites in com­pli­ance to web stan­dard) I think W3C would have lot more infos.

          Flash is cool but slow!

          Oh! the tri­pod is really expen­sive. check this site I nor­mally do as ref­er­ence for my buy­ing guide. i thought they give the best price already… http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&Q=&IC=CATMRA2W&A=RetrieveSku

          Thank you :) hugs

            I’ll have to check into the Flash issue. Thanks for the head-up!

            Gee, I bought my tri­pod mount years ago–they’ve really gone up a lot! With a 70–200 mm lens you can just mount the cam­era body on the tri­pod. Not the ideal solu­tion but still bet­ter than hand-held. All you can do is give it a try and see if you like the results. :)
