Hi Jeff,
a wonderful Happy New Year to you and the family...I like the composition, image and capture. Your subject has a good head angle with a good sharp eye, and great color rendition. I like the fine feather details. The crop and background setting compliments your bird quite well...proud of you Sir. Keep them coming...:cool:

[Bob Decker]

Really nice image, Jeff. The feather detail is excellent.

May you and yours have a happy and properous new year.

[Jeff Cashdollar]

Thanks Gus, looking forwards to heading your way sometime later year and having dinner.

Same to you and your family Bob, thank you - hope business is good this year!

[Gus Cobos]

I think it's all been said! ;) I love the wonderful detail, the color palette, the subtle gradation of colors in the heron's feathers, and the complementing background colors. Nice job! Happy New Year!

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Great sharpness and colours on the heron. Nice tan colour in the feathers too. Well done Jeff.

[Lance Peters]

Techs covered above.
Well done :)

Nice one Jeff!

I tried to get some good shots to start the new year off too. I don't believe I was quite as successful.
