Nice shot of the heron in flight. Sharp focus provides good details on the bird. Nice eyes and beak. Good color. I would try pulling the background down just a little Even blurred the white buildings are a distraction. Well done.

    Thank you....I'm trying to figure out how to do that in photoshop :)

    Easy way is to use the burn tool on "Highlights" at about 25% and then just stroke across until you get it to the look you want. If it goes to far you can undo it before you save it.

Nice stop of this action ! Beautiful in flight position of the great blue heron, I see clear detail over every part of the bird including a nice clear look at his eye! Well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well managed, his colors and tones appear natural. I would try to remove that bright white spot in left frame , otherwise it's an awesome capture, well presented!
