 Great Blue Heron | |
Donald: I will comment on your picture based on what I feel and do. I am no bird photographer although my frequent trips to the Everglades National Park eventually could make me an "expert."
In the first place, I am sure most of your viewers would have preferred to see the whole bird. From looking at the picture it seems to me that it is slightly overexposed. I do not see good detail in the feathers and the bright areas tend to go too bright. Useless to say that slight underexposure will saturate the colors and the blue water will look much better than here.
My tendency, and I can only speak on my behalf, is to show the whole bird in its environment. I understand that at times that environment might not be interesting and if so I refrain from shooting or come as close as I can. Birds in the process of doing something they do routinely, like fishing, adds interest to the shot.
Try what I said next time. Be selective and patient when doing this type of shooting and I bet your pictures will improve considerably.
I hope this helps.
