Excellent tones and detail on his plumage and surroundings Yves, and I like the sense of anticipation you captured here too. So beautiful and well done.

Thank you very much Heather.

What a great shot Yves. You have captured this beauty in a true environmental setting...lighting, colours and implied action all set the tone. Well done

Yves Langlois

Thank you for the nice comments Clifford. Yes, I guess I was quite lucky that everyting is perfect in the shot.

Debra Plett

Wow great shot Yves. Lighting really shows off the heron and the surrounding environment. The pose leads one to think that the heron is moving in on a possible lunch. Beauty.

Yves Langlois

Thank you for the appreciated comments Debra. I do many shots at those herons. I would say that one has the most beautyful colours. The whole shot looks professional and I am quite proud of it.

Description
In the wild we rarely choose the surrounding of the subject, but sometime it happen to be just perfect to give the shot some kind of a special beauty.
