Paula, great sequence of behavioural shots, I think the first one is my favourite but this one is also very expressive. Quality of the shots is also very good.

I notice that you use NX for conversion but do you use it for any other aspects of your workflow prior to taking into PS?

Cheers

A fine shot to end an enjoyable sequence.
I reckon cropping a little from the bottom of the frame to lose the lower advocet really strengthens the composition giving all the emphassis to the heron and other advocet.
