No pun intended, but great catch!
Very nice of the heron to turn around for you. Perfect details and exposure. Like the eye contact with the bird and the fish both.
I think I see some processing artifacts in the BG in a few areas. Definitely worth reprocessing carefully. Lovely image Karl
Very nice moment capture Karl.
Looking forward to seeing this image with cloning artifact issues dealt with. Image will willy look great then.

Thanks Gail.
I actually looked at the image at 400% before I posted it and did not find any obvious artifacts.
However, my eyesight is pretty poor and won't se what you see.
What I did was instead, I cleaned the bottom part that I did not before and got rid of some of the funny looking natural features that I did not really like to begin with.
Here it is.
Nice image with strong but good light, good HA and nice prey inclusion. I like the seaweed on the leg. Repost is much cleaner...there is still some weird yellow haze around the right foot and just to the right of that on the perch??

A wonderful capture, Karl. Couldn't have asked for better angle and eye contact, nor better view of the fish. As Geoff said, strong but good light. What I'm seeing is a little posterization in the bg -- an issue that has plagued me when working on dark bg's. Diane offered some advice on a recent post of mine, here: http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...n-Yellowthroat
Thanks Bill. I'll look into that posterization issue.
