This image cried out for high key exposure and processing. I know all will not find it appealing but I like high key when appropriate. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

I like high-key too, fun to create. I like the well-balanced composition and details, but I find the image too contrasty, and the heron's white forehead gets lost in the BG. I also wish the eye was better lit.
