Bill that's an absolute cracker you really nailed it! Great exposure colours and detail, I am being really picky now but would suggest lowering the saturation and possibly the luminosity of the yellows - just a bit.
Great timing and that light looks sublime. I really like the mid-step action and the low shooting angle, and the little catchlight finishes things off nicely.

I absolutely love everything about this picture except the head angle. Wish it was angled towards us a little. Everything else is just perfect. Man you cleaned up on the heron images down there. Have the feeling that more are to come...
Outstanding capture, Bill. Love the title. Beautiful light, and perfect BG.

Very nice image with a good exposure love the foot out of the water.
As Jonathan wrote, a cracking image. Love everything about it. Thank you for sharing, Bill.
