Peace is a Great Egret

For some reason I find this image immensely restful…peaceful…calming. It is an almost classic composition for one thing, and the great white bird above the silver-blue water…the solid sculpted mass of the fallen palms, and the strong verticals and diagonals of the standing trunks…it all just seems to hang in balance. My eye caresses it.

Or maybe it is just me. Smile  Taken at Viera Wetlands in Viera Florida.
