I'm a huge fan of elegance (even the word is beautiful!). An understated eloquence, a graceful simplicity. Though I'm more likely to attribute this to certain women, I was captivated by this creature's elegance in both still moments and in flight.
I don't always have my camera on me; so this afternoon, I was very glad I had just gotten my sensor cleaned, and walked down to the shoreline to farewell the sun for another day.
Presenting, the Great Egret.
