Purple Heron

Got a quick snap of this purple heron taking off. The background gives me the feeling of a painting. :)

Hi, Jay! This is a very nice image. I like the composition and the pose of your subject. The image looks a bit noisy... what ISO was the image made at? I'd like the background to be cleaner, but it works because there aren't any major distractions or items intersecting your subject.
