I wanted to show where the Little Blue Herons were found. In many ways this lake seems a photographic nightmare. I did like the grey trees.

Beautiful Elizabeth. I love scenes like this. So mysterious. This isn't Gordon Lightfoot, but the song is. Hope you enjoy.

Like this peek into the swamp! My favorite part is the blue sky reflected in the water and the silvery moss hanging from the trees like lace! Great work!

Wonderful Image E!

The Natural Framing of this shot really makes the pic.
The Great Blue flying low over the water is a BIG Plus.
Color, Reflections ......it's a Great Scene...Thanks!

Looks like a photographic dream to me. Beautiful colors and reflections, and a nice action shot of the heron. Pretty cool shot, Elizabeth.

Great shot, wonderful reflections, really makes the bird look blue. The moss is so silvery and it also has a blue cast to it. Terrific shot I'd say.

Very nice capture. The trees make a perfect frame. I'm glad you caught him flying...I've been trying for a while and can't get one. Watch out for snakes.

Nice cath of the bird on the wing there! The trees are an interesting contrast to the green on the ground. Looks like it may have been a hazy day...which brings out the grey very nicely.

A nightmare maybe, but you pulled it off nicely. Esp while capturing one in flight. I love those trees surrounded by green and the blue reflection on the water. Yep, it's a keeper.

I know what you are saying, but right now it looks more like a dream. Lovely image of the heron in his habitat.

For a "swamp", it's not really bad. :)
