Common Ostrich

I'd captured some front-lit shots of males earlier in the day, so I decided to do something different when this female appeared towards sunset. The rim lighting isn't super dramatic, but I think it helps the bird stand out. With most of my shots color-saturated, this muted result is a nice departure.
