    Hi Don, great HA here, and yes, you have captured excellent detail on the head. I feel you have mastered the sharpness perfectly, and the colours in the BG compliment the heron nicely. You should have a look at more images from a few months back.

    Don:

    This is very nice with fine colors, sharpness, love the texture and sense of depth in the shoulder feathers.

    Might try to tease out a little more detail in the whites beneath the bill.

    Hope to see more.

    Cheers

    Couldn't ask for a much better Green Heron portrait! Well done on all counts...colours, details, comp, BG. Sharpening perhaps a little crunchy in spots.
