Hilarious!!! I love it!!!

Your photo of the back end of a heron and your write up had me laughing. Too funny.

Nice photo. I love how it's dark and eerie in the background with the heron standing with its head down. It really looks like it has no head.

Great shot, sharp, framed well, colours are nice. Quite enjoyable friend!

LOL - I hope not Fred, but it for sure looks like it. I like how well the bird is showing off the feathers on its back, and also how the heap of branches it is sitting on is working as a nice and natural framing. You have also captured so well the fine shine and ripples in the water.

The bird is standing out sharp and well defined against the background, and it is clear details to be seen in the feathers. The exposure is perfect.

The photo is nicely cropped and the bird has got a fine placement off to the left. A lovely and well taken photo Fred, and with an excellent DOF.

Humorous and entertaining photograph of the heron with beautiful colors and texture on its coat with shiny feathers.
The dark colors on the lake are allowing us think that there could be a crocodile somewhere in the back.
Nice presentation!

    Welcome.
Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Fred,
First you have NO Crocodiles in Paris (At least none with 4legs) second if that heron had no head it could not stand upright... It's head is hidden behind it's body as it holds it's head low out over the lake as it searches for fish or is preening it's breast. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan.

A good looking nature image posted here together with amusing note! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that strange bird. Like the feather detail. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Nicely done!

I am reminded of headless ghosts, headless horse riders and politicians in general!:) Nice looking shot! You have timed it well. The light and shadows, colours and, composition have worked out well. Good effort!
