Little Blue Heron

[Joseph Przybyla]

I captured this image at Parrish Park on Merritt Island, Titusville, Florida. If any of you go to Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge after crossing the bridge from Titusville, Parrish Park is on the left side. If the bay/river is calm the early morning light can be wonderful. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for vieiwng.

Love the water and the ripple reflections on this beauty. Looks a tad soft on the face. TFS

ps
That trailing tail plume...

The blue water is nice, also like the ripples in the water. Framing is right on. The bird does look soft.
