Blue 2

Remask, clarity, impression and glow.

Nicely done. The heron stands out very nicely from the background, and you have a great color combination.

I like the way the blues and browns in the bird pick up the blues, golds and browns in the sky and ground. Nicely done.

I also like the blues and brown-golds in this & how they work so well between the bird and the bkgd. The diagonal in the foreground adds a subtle emphasis of the motion of the bird.

As said above, very nice colors and the filter is well-suited to the feathers and flight direction. Nice light and the eye really stands out.

The far end of the left wing has a bit of a cut-out look that could probably be softened nicely.

There is a lot to like with this image. I like the low angle of view, the complimentary muted colors, and the angle of light. The angle of light for most bird photos is over the shoulder. This image appears to be lit from the right upper quad. A lovely backlit bright rim is achieved.
