Great Blue Heron & Small Mouth Bass

Thoughts?

Great shot Chistopher! Looks very nice even with the small size and absolutely stunning with the large size. The details on the fish is just outstanding and the bird .... how do you get him/her to 'smile' like that, LOL!Great shot, congrats! 7/7

I've just looked at the specs and .. am shock at the  1/60 ss & 1200mm focal length.

Great bg and superb PP.

another outstanding image Chris. Just a follow on from TM J, I too noticed your focal length was 1200mm at F/8. Did you use a TL -converter on a 600mm f/4?

Hi Christopher Excellent close up and the BG compliments the heron.

Bravo, truly superb .. 

One of the best, excellent image in all aspects, ciao Giangiorgio

An excellent shot, Christopher!

Great catch, what an amazing details especially on the fish!

Bravo :)

Impressive. Great color and detail on the fish. Best regards, Linh Dinh

Almost goes out from screen,excellent details and dof control,best regards.

Nice shot... But wat happened to your original style.? I mean the b/g is distracting.. j/k..!!! Subject and detail along with the b/g is more natural in appeal than your regular style of Greeting card art. You work always deserve the top rating btw

Patience has paid off...I mean, both for the photographer and the photographed...

Excellent shot !!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing.

One is of the heron and the other is of you Christopher! Seven all the way!
