I captured this Heron at a local boat ramp, as it flew from one side of the ramp to the other. basic adjustments in acr and ps. Thought a 16x9 crop worked here.
Nikon D500/500PF, 1/3200th sec@f5.6, iso1000, manual mode, hh. Thanks as always for looking and providing feedback.

Hi Volkan. Thank you very much. Yes, it was very overcast conditions.

I think this is the best result you could have made in these conditions. The bird has a nice intense look on its face, and the dangling feet add interest. The wings look great as you avoided all shadows! Nicely done.

Hi Paul looks cool to me , nice one overall and the flat light helped here to have lovely tons of details to show up .
I can see some potential for slight mid tone boost .... to make the nice heron pop . I would work selectively .... not just a plain curve or levels adjustment .
Nice one !!!
