New toys Craig???:w3 Good DOF here, and the heron pops nicely from the water BG. If this were mine, I would blend in the lighter spots in the BG, and add a touch more to the left.

Good DOF on this one. Very nice. Agree with toning down the light circles.

Great shot. I find this the hardest shot to pull off ie. head on and flying towards you. I agree about cloning out the white circles and some room on the left if you have it,

Very sharp! Great eye contact. Might clone out some of the debris in the water.

[Brendan Dozier]

Very cool and unique POV on this, Craig! Good suggestions above, but nice work!

Thanks for your comments - have my work cutout, removing the high lighter spots on the back ground - sound advice :S3:
