Driver draws over after ‘awesome shock’ in Aussie suburban area: ‘Left me captivated’

An Australian professional photographer has actually shared a “breathtaking surprise” he made on a current journey, compeling him to draw over after a big winged pet dove over the top of his automobile.

Danny Lloyd was driving via Ripley in Ipswich, Queensland, previously this month when the wonderful experience unravelled.

“Thankfully I wasn’t speeding,” he informed Yahoo News Australia, claiming he was just taking a trip at concerning 40km/h when he saw the big bird.

“So I could safely pull over for a closer look. To my astonishment, it was a Black-necked Stork, its elegant, massive wings spanning wide as it glided over the road.”

Like any kind of excellent photographer, he had his cam with a 200-600mm lens available to attempt and record the marvelous bird.

“I focused and snapped a few shots of its glossy neck standing out vividly,” he informed Yahoo.

A picture taken at the time reveals the stork walking on its lengthy legs, presenting a charming environment-friendly neck and striking yellow eye– the last suggesting the stork is a woman. Meanwhile one more reveals it moving right into the range.

“With each frame, I felt as if I’d captured a small piece of Ripley’s wild beauty, a spontaneous encounter that left me awestruck by nature’s brilliance,” Danny claimed.
