beautiful close-up Andi! #1170702Carolyn J. Connolly August 21, 2009
What a fabulous capture of this gorgeous bird, Andi - the textures, lighting, clarity, tones, details and creative composition here all are superb!! It looks as though the Blue Gill *would* only make a snack for the Great Blue Heron, too - I guess he has to keep fishing for quite a while to fill up!! :o) #7874028Michelle Alton August 21, 2009
I agree with Carolyn....this is an awesome capture of an awesome capture. #7874207Andi Browning August 21, 2009
Thank you very much. I shot a lot of pics of this bird, this was my fave and it had the best lighting. Sometimes I just get lucky. #7874340Randy A. Myers August 21, 2009
