Caught this heron at a local beach yesterday. The crop is not a 'standard' aspect ratio so I wonder if that works. I have more room to add space on most directions if it's too cramped anywhere.
I too like the crop and the image is sharp. I could do without the rock which draws the viewers eye from the suhject.
later and love, artie

I like it. I also like it better without the rock. I'd get rid of the one little round highlight or out of place feather or whatever it is on the back of the bird's neck.
Stunning image of the GBH and I love the breaking wave in the BG. I too like the repost and feel the removal of the rock really strengthens the image since the eye is not diverted from the main subject. thanks for sharing.
