A lovely exposure of this bird in soft ambient light. The colorful reflections of the trees add a lovely vibrance to the natural scene. I really do look forward to the day that you move away from the Square crop and start working with standard camera ratios. Thanks for sharing, look forward to seeing more.

    Thank you so very much! I did not understand the crop very well until recently when I was getting some prints made. This is an old post. All the crops I do now is 18x24. I am still learning.

    Hi willie, I hope my suggestion didn't offend you. I was just trying to help you get ahead with your photography. Take care Barry.

    No! I am glad to here comments. I have a lot to learn. The cropping is now one less thing.

Tremendous shot Willie, the detail and reflection is superb and the lighting and colors perfectly blending to compliment the Heron.

I almost said "another blue heron" photo, but this is one of the best because of the strong image from the bird and the full reflection. I love the background and the log as the horizon line. Great focus, good details and GREAT composition. Thanks for showing us a little different twist.

Great photo like the use of the reflections in the water. the relected trees also help make the bird pop in the image

Comment from Mr Jones


a great, clear shot with a perfect reflective quality. wonderful how you have composed the picture and waited for a real choice position, from the heron.

Another great shot of the blue heron, nice subtle fall colors in the background and the reflection in the water is perfect even though there are a few ripples which makes it look more realistic

Beautiful capture of the blue heron and his reflection in the water. Excellent contrast and clarity throughout your piece.

Good color variations in the water from the greenery surrounding this area.

Good placement of subject and good point of view with the reflection.
