Green Heron

[Harold Davis]

I was going through some files from last month and run across this one and thought it was really good until I saw Fabs!! Found this guy at Wakodahatchee Wetlands in the rain.

D300, Bigma at 500mm, f/6.3, 1/250s, 0EV, ISO 500, flash fired at 0EV with bb.

Comments and critiques are appreciated.

No Tri-colored. This is Harry's fater, Green Heron.

Nicely done, great bg and DOF, Kudos!

A nice portrait of a Green Heron, Harold. Very sharp, great background, and I like the head-on stare. You might consider cropping from the left to emphasize even more the vertical look of this bird. Well done.

[Mike Tracy]

HI Harold,

Extremely sharp with lovely details and BG. The colors are on the money and the composition works for me very well.

Excellent work.

This is so cool! what I like about it is the fantastic colors, detail, and a great background!

[Raul Quinones]

Great picture. I like the colors, sharpness and pose. Nice clean background also. I like it as presented.

The BG is a delicatessen, that is what I call a sweet green. Really nice. The frontal pose of the birds is interesting, not the tipical heron portrait and I like to see both eyes and the complete tip sharp. Well done
