Blue Heron

     This is an image of a Blue Heron that I came across one day while walking along the Santa Barbara Harbor. One thing I like about photographing animals is the way they always seem to pose for you. I love how the heron is posed, giving it the perfect "S" curve and leading the viewer's eyes through the image.

Bird

      This is a photograph of a Green Heron that I found at the harbor in Santa Barbara, California. I decided to make the photo black and white to emphasis the mood that I felt from the bird. What mood does the bird make you feel?
