TCH Reflection

My apologies for not posting lately.  While looking through 2010 archives I found this one shot in Bayou Sauvage in December.  I normally would prefer a lower angle, but I was restricted by the boardwalk.  As it turns out the reflection was sharper than the bird, which made it work for me.  Cropped from top to 4x5 from 4/3rds original.

Good job making the high vantage point work for you. I like how the reflection actually shows more of the heron.

I really like the reflection, Bill, though the steep angle and the pose of the heron feel a bit awkward.  Excellent techs.
