White Stork in full moon silhouette (ciconia ciconia)

I often pass by a year round colony of white Storks close to Spains frontier with Gibraltar, so looking for something a little different I decided to go for a full moon silhouette. It was a lot of work because you only have seconds to move and frame it all, and you have to hope the bird stays rock still. It was well worth the hassle.
