When commuting to school, I spot these egrets amidst a landfill every day. Sometimes, these egrets come close to the road, trying to find a meal for themselves. When trying to photograph them creatively, I realized that I could capture them with a walking person in the foreground. After tens of attempts and hundreds of images, I achieved the shot I envisioned.
Additionally, this man was covering his mouth and nose with a napkin, which added a lot to the overall image.
