In Pursuit of Perfection

We all strive to improve over time, be it a personal goal or a photo of a subject. The photo on the left is my first photo of a Marbled Godwit taken in Winderemere Basin in Hamilton in 2017. The bird was too far away. I used a 2x converter on 500mm lens to maximize the reach. The bird was barely recognizable from its shape and pink at the base of its beaks. It made my life list then. The second photo in the middle of a Marbled Godwit was taken in Stayner Sewage Lagoon near Barrie on May 27, 2019. The bird was closer, and the photo was better; however, there's still plenty of room to improve. The photo on the extreme right was taken in Tommy Thompson Park in Toronto on Aug 27, 2019. This time I managed to get a lot better picture with clear identification of a Marbled Godwit. Now, the question is am I going to stop taking photos of a Marbled Godwit? Most likely not, if the opportunity for betterment is there, so will be I.
