A wonderful pose and superb detail in the Heron, Ray. Amazing that they can hunt through that layer of duckweed.
Well done.

Love the stretched out pose of this Greenie, Ray. Might be a bit tightly framed for some tastes, but I think it works nicely in the comp.

I love this Ray, the DOF, perch and the pose are all great and contribute to making this a fine image. Really nice detail in the heron. Well done!

Good composition. Good detail in the larger version. Nice pose and intent look on the heron.

Looks like it's streaming into a high wind! Outstanding! This really conveys the notion that it is hunting.

Hey Ray,
Yet another truly Cool Green Heron image. The framing in this one is inspired, works wonderfully and really makes this image enjoyably unique.
Well done . . .

Beautiful capture. The bgd a bit distracting because looks like it's been manipulated so the top part is out of focus, or is that just my eyes?
