Photographers Comment
"Coexisting" I originally went to the beach to try to shoot a panorama that captured both the rise of the full moon simultaneously with the sunset. Unfortunately the moon was enshrouded by clouds, but the sunset was phenomenal. When I saw this Great Blue Heron fishing for his dinner, I crept up on him to capture his silhouette. When I noticed the people in the background walking toward the shoreline, I waited for them to get in just the right position to complement the bird's position. This is my favorite kind of shot....the one you get when you're chasing something else...perfect serendipity. I am honored to have my image alongside so many amazing others, and very humbled for this affirmation of my work. Thank you! Kim Herold, Navarre, FL
