Very nice piece of stop action photography! You got the wings raised at the moment of lift off perfectly. Well composed, as the flies into the frame, and beautiful natural colors as well. Donkeyoatey

This is a good stop action photograph. The main subject is in sharp focus. The picture is nicely balanced. The photo has good depth of field.

Amazing and well worth the wait! A beautiful capture and although the speed is too fast to allow for motion blur, the position of the body and wings gives a strong impression of grace yet power in the flight stroke. The tight focus just accentuates that. Lovely shot!

I really like how you have captured the majesty of the heron. I also like how much detail that you can see as he moves off.

A really fine capture and indeed a fine action of the bird. Lucky for you that he flew this time? I don't think so, This was excellent timing. The dept is perfect an the colors are beautifully natural. The bird itself is crisp and flawless captured. Best luck for the contest.
