What a shot! This is one great shot of the Great Blue Heron. The colors and details are simply beautiful. The lighting and DoF are great. Center of interest and initial impact are excellent. Love the shot of the eye. Thanks for sharing this beautiful shot. Eileen

Looks somewhat strict with dignity. Although the subject is simple, the depth of those feathered textures contribute to the overall appearance by the maximum degree.

The difference between a good photo and excellent photo usuall comes down to timing, being in the right place at the right time.
The sharpness of the eye gets your attention. Excellent photograph.

Nicely done, good sharpness, glint in the eye, and eye pretty close to a "power point". My only suggestion would be to add some canvas to the right of the bird's beak, it's usually considered to be good to have more space on the side a person or animal is facing.

Love the alluring blue base to this work. The centering is also very well done. The crisp clear close up of this bird excellent. The detail in the beak and that hypnotizing eye are wonderful. Like the hair like strands behind the head too. NICE

I see you still have that eye in focus. Very good close-up. You are so fortunate to have all these birds in your neck of the woods. Wishing you and yours a Great 2012. Looking forward to more of your great bird images.

You filled the frame with this sharp focused photograph. The exposure is also very good too, capturing light gold of its eye, and the beautiful blue water. I also like the pose of this bird; he was definitely checking you out too. Good photographs.

Comments: A cyber 6.0 is coming your way. Great Head shot of the Great Blue. They are such a majestic bird. You did a really good job of capturing that Regal Look. Very nicely composed. Good DOF. Good Focus. Good artist notes. Good Job. Thanks for sharing.
