Hi All,

This image was taken at Farmington Bay, UT yesterday. With warmer temperatures we witnessed almost 20 Great Blue Herons hunting at one location in Farmington Bay, UT.

I found that we have a GBH Rookery at near by place.

This image was taken after sunset, I saw beautiful colors in water and Mountain Reflection.

Nikon D500, 70-200mm f/4 at 200mm
ISO 4000, f/4, 1/160sec
Matrix Metering + 1 2/3 EV

Do let me know your thoughts and comments.

Thank you for watching

I like what you went for here. Nice colours, and the silhouetted heron looks good. I usually do not like such heavy inclusion of the "hand of man", but it works well here - especially if trying to promote a nature/man sharing space type imagery. I would however remove the tall antenna(?) in upper left corner. I would also crop from the bottom to place the heron and its reflection closer to the corner. Well seen opportunity!
