    That open wingspan, good under belly exposure and you can see the eye. Very nice.

    Sweet light and nice underwing detail. I might move the bird slightly to the left in the frame.

    Excellent,Ofer.I like the posture,providing good light on the underwing.We have these herons in Southern Africa as well and they are quite difficult to photograph well since the images mostly produce a(one) very dark underwing.Agree with Doug to move the bird to the left.
