p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Great Egret in my Studio (22)

A few days ago this sexy female great egret visited me in my 52 acre studio, the Oceanside Marine Nature Study Area on Long Island, NY. It was very foggy creating beautiful soft light which I used for rim and head light. I then used my shoe mounted flash for fill light dialing it back to leave some shadow. There were gail force winds with 20 MPH sustained wind and guest to 50 MPH blowing the egret's feathers and I fully exploited the many unusual poses this created. I invite you to sit back and enjoy this sexy female great egret.

Lovely Morris. I love the wind blown effect in 8 through 14, really fantastic and different.

Thank you Roberta,
The blowing wind reminded me of a fashion shoot and is what lead me to the subject
