What a great shot!
A brilliant frame-filling composition and an excellent pose.
Superb detail and clarity.
Excellent sharpness.
Slightly over-exposed on the face but is not a bit problem.
Well done Selen!

Hi Selen

I love herons and this in-flight shot is amazing. Stunning frozen action and sharp details. I love the frame filling composition and the great POV. It doesn't look OE to me, I can see detail in the neck and that slightly pink tinge that you can get on herons

merhaba Selen hanım,
ekipmanlarımız birebir aynı. ama hala eksik gedik var, fabrika çıkışlarında fark yoksa sizden öğreneceklerim daha epey var demektir (mesajınız için ayrıca teşekkür ediyorum). bu güzel çekimi zevkle izledim. renkler, netlik, açı hepsi çok güzel. elinize sağlık, selamlar.

Hello Selen

Superb!
The POV is excellent.these birds are very much like our Great Blue Herons over here.They cut an imposing figure in the sky when they fly over head.They are such powerful fliers.
You have captured the flight well.
Very good contrast,the details are sharp with very good focus.
Great job.
