When in Boston I like to go to Mount Auburn Cemetery, where this Green Heron, after waiting for 40 min. catched the little frog. Nikon D3S; (1/2000); Aperture f/8.0; lens 400 mm; ISO:1000; Exposure Bias +1/3 EV

Renzo, Your wait was well-reward. Good capture. I would consider blurring some of the FG grasses so they don't distract from the bird. Another possibility might be selecting the bird and his frog capture and applying a curves adjustment layer so s/he pops out a bit more from the surroundings.

Regards,

Carol

Poor frog but well worth the wait for the photo.
