    Nice shot Franco ... great pose and good angle on the flight path, so often these guys will angle away from you. The image may need to be a tad brighter.

    Thank you, and I think so too, kinda lost some details in the darks/shadows.

    I shot this with my 70-200mm F/4 IS on my T2i, I was really close to the heron, within like 20ft.
