With the mild weather we have been having in Southern Ontario; this Great Blue has found a nice lush green spot around a discharge entry into a pond.

Comments and suggestions always welcome.

Jim:

Looks like you had a nice opportunity here. I like the pose and the environment. I do wish there was more room for the heron. It feels tight in the frame. I'm assuming this was cropped? Any more room. Also, the saturation of the colors is a bit high. I think it would look more natural backing off the saturation some.

Hi Jim: I agree with Keith's comments. Also,it looks like the critical focus may have been a bit in front of the Heron as it looks a bit soft to my eye, but the grass in front looks pretty good.
