My regular camera broke the day before. I was very unhappily using my backup camera. But I was also very surprised and happy that it made the cover of National Wildlife. Its also licensed for use on a greeting card and I've sold prints.
Wow. Real strong image. Nailed the focus, captured a great moment. I game it a 5!
What an impressive image! I love everything about it ..... the perfectly clean background, the separation between the Heron's heads, and the depth of field which permits both heads to be tack sharp. You rock!
Really WOW. For me one of the best wildlife photos I've seen so far on this site. Great interaction, excellent postprocessing! No wonder that it made it on the cover of ... . It's an excellent proof for the fact that you don't (always) need a high-end camera to produce a top photo.
