Nice shot here and very well composed. I like how focused and clear the entire scene is, you can almost feel him staring at you.

Oh I do love this bird! It almost looks like he's smirking. Love the expression. Wonderful clarity and sharpness. Composed well. Good colors and tones. Nice and clear to see all the details in his (or her) face. Well done.

Willie - Its my fast fingers. Sorry about the four. I went back and changed it to five which was as high as it would let me. I do love this shot and never meant that four. Sorry again! Diane

At first glance this seems like an ordinary photo, but with a second look I am really taken by the extraordinary detail in the heron. Just because of this you have done a great job, willie.

Comment from foureyes
very sharp, good exposure and pose, cropping provides adequate space in front of bird -- if anything, too much, I think you could crop to double the space behind the bird. You were well stopped down so you have a lot of DOF -- too bad since I'd have liked to have seen the background blurred so the bird stands out more. Fortunately, his coloration is very different.

Good story telling ability and technical know how the position of the heron give a real feel to this shot made all the more real by good lighting

I like the right composition with space in front of the heron showing the way to the waters edge and the three horizontal zones. That gives interest to the picture.
The colors and the contrast are fine.

Hi Willie,
LOL LOve your notes and image!
If birds had cameras this guy might have got a shot of YOU to hang on his wall!
All kidding aside the shot is beautiful.The focus really shows off those beautiful feathers. LOve the fact you caught this guy walking. The foot in the air adds a lot of interest to the image. The lighting is super.
Good Luck in the Contest!
Very NIcely Done!

Blur Heron I believe? Nice capture. Well focused, great framing. Sometimes it's those 'spontaneous' shots that work the best
