It looks like a Japanese print, with the heron standing in for a crane. Heron blue files by. Reflection on the water. Ripples touch my heart. I see the dilemma about the OOF grass in the foreground. It does distract, but it also provides framing and weight to the bottom. In a way, if you can't get rid of it, I wish there were *more* of it. Anway, this shot is a keeper. You might make a print of it, put it aside for a week, and then play with masking it off in different ways with some cardboard "Ls." Or, (despite the fact that I usually don't usually believe in doing this), use your "Mars Attacks" Photoshop skills to clone in some more grass. --Peter At 11:59 AM 1/28/2007 -0800, Sonny wrote: >I'm not one to go stalk birds, and I don't really have the gear to do it, >but every once in a while I find a shot that I like.
