Outstanding capture Giangiorgio! The intense action between the birds is terrific, but also the lighting and colorful background. Well done. Todd

Hi Giangiorgio,

 

an excellent heron action photo! Both of the 'nearby' herons' eyes are in focus, as are the water drops from the younger bird being pushed under water. I also like the colorful background and the heron that doesn't seem to care. Masterful composition! Kind regards, Vincent

As always great capture of the moment with decent technical quality! My sincere compliments, Giangiorgio! Ciao! PDE

One of the most accomplished, refined, eye-catching, hyper-focused renderings I have seen in a long time. This is pure mastery. It is what the dumbest people say when they see a magic trick: "how did he do it". A stupid question as the magician would never reveal his/her magic. Don't reveal yours! Worthy of any serious photograph collectors. DG
