Fantastic!!

What a great action moment of that heron in flight perfectly controlled, perfectly timed I like the fact that the heron has parts of it outside of the frame, superb detail and camera skills, great contest entry and worth a 6 but cant give on out.

Great shot you have there.
Good and clear colors.
Blurring in background lets the reviewer focus on main object.
The focus is sharp and good composure.
Good work.

No lens chance(!) needed! You captured all the color and detail possible in a quick shot.

The heron is a gorgeous bird and you have a very fine view.

You did well and the shot is great. The stop action in flight is great. You DoF keep the attention of the bird. And we can see many of the colors that we do not often get from a Blue heron. Thanks for sharing, john

Comment from Tellust


What a great nature shot, I know he surprised you, but the composure really works well. looks like he is flying in to the shot.

Like I need a name! Your notes give you AWAY! Great shot. Wish you got all of the wings. Nice eye clarity and yes I know the moment slipped by. Maybe now you will stop teasing me about the feet!
A great WING it kind of shot! LOL. Next time..I WANT more WINGS! HA! Wish you added camera setting too!

    Thank you so very much! You can't see wings or feet! LOL! This was taken about two years ago. The settings was probably ISO 400 1000/sec f8 or f9.

I love the blue herons, they're so pretty. I love his blue wing span. The peach and orange are pretty too. He's got such a long neck. He looks cool in mid flight over the lake. Nice photo shot well.
thanks, Levon7

A great capture. He put on a show for you. Good composition and presentation. Nice focus and clarity. A great blur on the background. This should do well in the contest. Good luck
