Nice depth of field and exposure. You caught a very expressive moment. Your title should be tarred and feathered!

Great shot! Those tiny white spots are bugging me a bit, shame spot editing is illegal. Still great, never seen a bird pointing =) 9

it looks like there is water marks or something on your lens. its very distracting judging the picture when you can see them on the picture itself. without those tho it is a nice shot with great DOF and excellent clarity.

Funny and wonderful in a storybook way. Clean crisp and composed. And I realize how hard it is to get those heronĂ¢€™s to pose, much less talk!

Now if you could have recorded the conversation to boot, that would be extraordinary. Nice shot nonetheless!

Excellent shot. That bird really has personal qualities and you captured them perfectly. I've watched these birds some and this is an extraordinary pose. Great focus on the bird and the depth of field washes out the distractions nicely. Looking hard for something to change, the only thing I can think of would be to keep the feet, but even then I don't know that it could be any better. I love it!

I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that title!
Nature is extraordinary by itself and needs no explanation. 9
