There are so many pluses about this. I like that the heron is to the side; as it makes the whole photo more interesting. The detail is great; color and contrast are great too.

This is one classy shot perfectly focused and framed. The reflection is remarkable and the water is too. Excellent job in capturing this grey heron. Ray

He is hiding form someone but not from you. The lighting and construction of the scene is great. I love the reflection and the ripples on the surface of the stream. The lighting and focus are spot on.

This is one of the nicest framed takes of yours that I have seen. Eye pleasing placement of the heron and its reflection as an anchor. The bird contrast well against the verdant background.

Fine details like the eye and the edge sharpness of the beak of the Heron are not easily seen. Ultra fine detail is not what this shot is about.

Instead I see an artistically crafted shot that has great story potential ... Bob

This heron is posing for you in such a lovely way, and I like the way the light is falling on him. I especially like how well you have captured the shiny water with its reflection and ripples, and the bird is also standing out from the background in a excellent way.

The photo is very sharp and it is such clear and well defined details to be seen all over. The exposure is perfect.

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

Fred,
A beautiful picture of the Grey Heron standing on the lake's bank at the base of a tree on it's roots while it's reflection along with the tree & the pale sky above are an added bonus. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

Comment from Glena Jessee-King


Witty title. You photographed the grey heron with skill, hiding or not. The water and ripples are nice as well. The whole composition turned out very well, including its hiding place and the reflections there.

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of the bird and its location. Colours, textures and tones are good. Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely done!
