Just barely got this shot off of the little blue heron taking flight. It is clearly out of focus with the blur of the flapping wings and dripping water flow from the bird's legs. In fact, more clarity is evident in the bird's reflection! Despite the lack of photographic technical quality, I kept coming back to this shot as today's 'daily image'...maybe its reliving the satisfying moment of the shot (no matter the outcome) or the neutral earthy tones that belie the other views or maybe its the potential...the anticipation of what's next!

So much of the future can be created by each one of us - that potential can be translated into reality with a realistic vision, a confident belief, some thick 'elbow grease' and that inexplicable *magic* that really transforms. Though it may seem elusive or unreachable, working towards that future is vital! 12th Ave S & Naples Bay, Naples, FL
