Good flight image of the GBH!  The reflection sets the image off well.   Maybe just a tad sharper.  I would experment with cropping off some more off of the top.  thanks for shairng.

Nice flight shot, Peter.  I like the wing positon and hte reflection of the Heron as well as the nice vegetation reflections in the water.  You might try bringing up the darker areas a bit as the bird looks a bit dark to my eyem, htough the cheek patch looks abut as bright as you could get it without blowing the whites.

I like the wing position and the reflection is very nice, I'd consider cropping a bit tighter.  Ray
