I like this. Nice gentle heron shot -back to the wind. Nice.
Maybe a bit off the top for balance.

The low angle and soft light work very well here.

For me the bland sky definitely needs some cropping, otherwise a nicely composed and well isolated image.

Like this as is or with a bit off the top. Looks very desolate and lonely :smile:

Hi Marek,

It looks as though you've managed to register twice (once as a member & once as a non-member). You might like to e-mail Jim Erhadt & ask him to merge the two registrations into one for you. If you've forgotten your member registration or password, then Jim can sort that for you too.
