This is a capture is what I would call a ‘happy mistake.’ Technically, my camera settings were wrong for capturing a bird in flight with the shutter speed having been set too slow. I failed to notice that when taking the picture but, in the end, the result was quite nice I think.
The slow shutter speed caused a blurring of the ends of the wings and the background but maintained sharpness of the bird’s face a body. The result, coupled with the light from the sun just emerging over the horizon, is pretty neat.
