A common camera problem I have had while filming birds like this great blue heron is a major change in exposure while tracking their flight. In this case, I started tracking the bird while it was out in open water where the light levels were high and my camera settings were right, but as the heron flew into the shadow area along the shore, the shutter speed dropped to 1/20 sec., too slow to freeze the action. There wasn't enough time to reset the camera and a blurred photo was the result. Most of the time, they get thrown out. In this instance though, I liked the somewhat impressionistic effect.
