Hi,

I would like to share some of my pictures taken today at lunch. Your comments and critiques are welcomed and appreciated.

Very crisp and sharp with vivid colour and good lighting. Well done.

I really enjoy the settings you have in all the shots instead of the mud and brown water i am used to seeing around here. Never heard of Indian Rocks Bridge but the only time I saw a Heron in a bush like that was in the FL Keys so i guess you are close.

Looks like breeding plummage on the Egret. that last shot shows it up very well. It is difficult to shoot a white bird against dark water and still catch the detail. Nice work.

These look outstanding to me - beautifully done.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.
It was a lucky catch at lunch time on Monday.

Welcome to the forum, Rob! How wonderful it would be to be able to photograph such birds on lunch break. These are super shots, and my favorite is the last one of the egret, though they're all terrific.

Thanks Tamia,
I take my camera with me every day, I consider it a bad day when I don’t take any pictures.
