The sky was its typical red tonight but my attention was diverted by this Heron watching the sunset with me. I thought his silhouette looked good against the background colours. Hope you do too.

That almost looks like something out of a Disney animated movie. What a great find and capture. Really a great shot, Paul.

Great capture - I love the way the heron appears to be standing so casually and enjoying the view.
Fabulous sky you have there too :)

I would pull this one off and save it for Silhouettes contest in case it should win again.
Beautiful Paul and you must be living right.

He's obviously a heron with excellent taste. Another fabulous sunset Paul. You never seem to run out of them.

This would go well in a silhouette contest. Very beautiful colors in that sky.

You know this photo could use a little something on the right to distract the eye from all the beauty and symmetry on the left. :D
Excellent work Paul. Beautiful sunset colours and silhouettes. A fantastic looking scene.

This one stole my breath away! What an amazing sunset. I love how you waited for the colors to deepen and the shadows to darken. The heron is the icing on the cake!

Ok, I'm something of a sucker for sunsets. The industrial silhoettes are a nice touch though, but the heron really makes the shot. Nice job.
