Each spring, many nesting pairs of Great Egrets gather at Kraft Azalea Garden in Central Florida to begin their nesting rituals. I was inspired to share with the world the beauty of the Great Egrets. I made countless trips to the location to capture the most beautiful moments. Their true beauty is best reflected in their natural living environment. I wanted to fully utilize their enchanting surroundings to obtain unique compositions. I carefully chose the camera positions and patiently waited for the best opportunities. During post-processing for some of these photos, I selected the sky to make it darker before painting the light, using the digital brush to create a more dreamy, mysterious, and artistic impression. Throughout two Spring seasons, I finally finished the series to display the beauty of wildlife in natural Florida.
