Green Heron patiently waiting on his lunch.

Cloudy day with little light. I ran it through HDR pro and then edit in Elements.

Thanks to EJ with help on the camera settings. I think I still need a lot of practice though.

I agree with the "Oh, Wow" factor Opie. Love the focus and the water looks really good. I didn't realize these were this small. Great post.

Oh wow! I love the effect of the water behind him. Looks like ink, black and reflective, like night waiting to swallow the day! Awesome. Keep it up!

P.S. I just downloaded my first pic in a while. Let me know what you think. It's called, As Time Goes By
