Fred,
A beautiful picture of this Grey Heron stretching it's neck & turning it's head to watch you closely. the green vegetation around the lake creating a beautiful contrasting backdrop. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

He must be necking a lot!:) Nice looking shot of the heron! Fine clarity and sharpness. The light and shadows, colours and, composition have worked out well. Good effort!

thanks for the effort

Comment from nikman
Yes, you certainly do! Your fine, full and off-centre composition offers us a good look at it. Like the beak and feather detail too. Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Comment from Brenda Curley
Good composition.
This heron is amazing and the up close shot of the face and body are exciting to view.
The focus, clarity and framing is good. And, the backgound environment adds to this photo. Good color.
Nice shot.
