Wow! Great action shot here. I love that you captured him not with the fish just in his beak but, the beak right through the fish. The wing position is really attractive. Nice stop action of the splash of water. The log in the foreground is a very nice added element. Nicely done.

Nice capture of this Great Blue with his catch of the day.
Like the V shape raise of his wings and the water splash up.
Nice focus, Exposure and fine stop action.
Nicely done Willie ;)

a beautiful well taken and timed image, great stop action showing the fine detail in the birds plumage and fish in its beak, beautiful light, natural colours and framed to perfection, it was well worth the wait, an absolute gem, love it.

I have been waiting for Sunday to get my six stars back for this outstanding stop action;
a blue heron with a big fish; very sharp focus with great details:

Very nice photograph. This herons wing span is outrageous. I've never seen a grey heron with red in his wings. It looks like he just grabbed that fish and is now standing tall, and ready to take off. You got this pic with the fish flailing and creating a splash. Great work.

Wow! What a great capture. Everything is in such clear and crisp focus. I love the dark background that helps the bird pop! The fish in his mouth give the photo that extra special something! Gorgeous.

Great capture of the action! Perfect timing to capture this moment that the heron comes out of the water with the fish in it's mouth and the water splashing around it. Excellent sharpness and detail. Great light and color.

Seems like I have seen this stump before. It seems like the heron has caught some kind of salt water fish. A beautifully composed image with great details and fine colors. Best of luck in the contest.

Willie, a great moment to be able to capture such a shot! You must be thrilled! I know I would be!

Great details and a wonderful stop action.

Being at the right place at the right time has a little play here.. but your diligence certainly paid off :)
