This zoomed out view of the Great Blue Heron shows the bird as small in the surroundings of what used to be where boats moved down to the water at a boat building business.

I like the zoomed out image Harold very nice composition. To see the beautiful reflection and the habitat that the heron lives in now after the humans have left. Too bad more isn’t done to ensure the land is cleaned up and put back to its natural state.

Nice, Harold. Great to get the bird (nature) beside what's left of man made (unnatural).

Excellent composition, great tones and textures, well detailed here. The beautiful heron and its reflection add the perfect contrast to a really unique view. What a great shot Harold!

The guy looks funny with its elongated neck. Water is just perfect to reflect some green color. The texture of the background is very interesting too. Very nice compo. Good that you included the old rotten peer on the right.
