Juevenile Little Blue Heron
Taken last week at Green Cay as the evening was approaching. The lighting was lovely and although Green Cay has been quiet recently there was a little action going on.
D300
Nikon 200 to 400mm F4
ISO 200
1/2000 F6.3
Hand held
All comments are much appreciated. Thanks !!
Excellent pose and techs Judy Only a full up wing could have made it better Love that late light and bg Glad you are exercising your 200-400!!!! Need to go over there with the new VR !!!! Hope the action picks up Big Congrats !!!
I like the light in this image a lot. I wouldn't try to eliminate shadows here, but I wonder if lightening the shadow on the wing just a bit would lessen it's impact on the image over all?
Wow! the lighting and sky look real pleasing to me. There is something at the very top border and left of center-does not look like a cloud based on its shape. An oof branch in foreground perhaps, based on it's linera shape?
Jeff this image is just as taken. The only post work was cropping and and a touck of USM. Nothing else was touched. Thanks so much for commenting.

Judy, Lovely! I am a big fan of capturing the subjects in great lighting and this has that and more!

P.S. - good eye sight out there...I had to put my face up against the screen to find it...does look like it might be a dust bunny...an easy "fix."
I agree with the natural light look left alone here. You did outstanding! This has got to be the best whites I have ever seen with this kind of light.
Congrats!!!
I really love the light,sharp eye and colors!!!
Very nice! The action is frozen perfectly, and the exposure looks great.
Great light and pose, the BG makes this really special. The chest looks a bit dark. I'm wondering if selective S/H would improve it.
This one simply rocks, what a stunner. Can't see a way to improve it really, wish it was mine.
