    Your heron is a beauty Dumay!

    The soft background really compliments this bird. I really like the fluffy feather details in his chest as well as his feet wrapped around his perch.

    Beautiful image all around. As a matter of taste , I might have taken a bit more off the top. Just a minor comment to what is a super image.

    What a superb portrait, Dumay. That BG and the light, the sharpness and EXP--well done!

    I like the attentive pose, and well placed in the frame. Overall, nice and sharp, and a different colour to your normal mankwe BG. Well captured mate.

    Very sweet image. The BG compliments the plumage of the bird. Very nice light and perch too. Well done.

    Very nice control of light on the shadow side of the bird. Gorgeous shot.
