A Heron's View

I thought I may have posted this earlier, but checking my gallery and everything else, I don't see it anywhere. It's my favorite Green Heron shot, as it takes in the view of a local lily pond before fishing. Only had the 300mm, so it's D90, ISO-500, 1/400th, f-8.0, 300mm, manual.

Some may say there is a green color cast, but that is what I was seeing in the reflections in the water so I left it. Your C&C appreciated!

Bill, I love the beautiful environmental scene that you have captured in this image. I only wish the heron and the log were in better focus. I'm not sure if the focus point was off or if the softness is the result of a large crop.
