A portrait of a young Great Blue Heron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Blue_Heron). I had the chance to be near, but I use a teleconverter 1.4x (Teleplus Pro 300 Kenko) and do some cropping on the top.

J'ai eu la chance d'être proche, mais j'ai dû utiliser un multiplicateur 1.4x (Teleplus Pro 300 Kenko) et à recadrer un peu dans le haut de la photo.

Good shot with some nice detail, you can get even ore detail in the plumage by reducing the shadows.

Hi Francois.
Perfect close-up picture. And excellent reproduction all details of this amazing bird. I like composition, sharpness and details. The BG is very nice also as well as the reproduction of light waves and water color tones. My compliments and TFS.
Alexei.
