[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Captured this pond heron in the nearby garden where it was all set to catch the prey. He was concentrating on the prey for almost 10 minutes and did not move till then. But in the end it was not able to catch that prey.

Hi Kedar !

Splendid image!
Made and played excellent.
Have a beautiful day

I had a feeling as if the image was distorted (stretched), Kedar, but then after reading your note, the Heron's pose is justified; it is using stealth to grab its prey.
The picture is very pleasant to look at with the ambience of a water lily pond. I guess that special colouring on the plumage of the bird indicates breeding season.
Well done and TFS.

Hi Kedar,
a nicely captured heron in its natural surroundings. The feather is so special and the eye is so clear. Beautiful composition.
I like its long beak probing into something.

regards,
Foozi
