Great nature capture. The upper left corner looks a bit odd with the cross-hatching. Was that natural or added post-processing? Just curious.

Wow, this is such a cool capture! I love your title too. The colors are amazing here, I especially love the softness of the water. 10 and a fave.

oh very cool, but seeing more of the legs and perhaps reflection would have made it a 10 - but since I like it so much, you still get a 9!

Well done-- despite my least favorite creatures on the planet.
Can hardly look at one ...

Great title. Nice capture.

Wow I've never seen a heron with this big of a snake. Only suggestion I would make is I wonder if some fill light would have brought out more detail in the feathers.

 10/02/2007 09:44:14 PM
Go Heron! Awesome moment. I hate snakes. its kind of funny after reading your title, when i look at the heron he does have that uh oh expression.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/02/2007 04:07:32 PM
Wow this is stunning, the background is so perfect in colour and soft focus but the amazing moment you captured makes the entire shot and image to reckon with, bumping to a 10!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/02/2007 01:22:50 PM
You don't see this very often. You really got lucky (or are very patient) to get a shot like this. Not only perfect timing but technically sound and solid. 10 + fav

I do NOT envy his position!!!! Hope he can throw it far or snap its neck.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

WOW. That's some kinda snake. I wish the crop weren't so tight. It makes me feel like I'm missing something. Love the water colors and the sharp focus on the bird.

Beautiful job. Very nice colors. The subject being just off center is very effective.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

terrific wildlife capture
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 10/01/2007 12:57:48 PM
Excellent capture -- I guess that has two meanings! Excellent capture by the bird, and by you! One of a handful of 10s this time around.

Excellent capture...and great title!

Very cool! Very nice contrast and excellent bokeh here to show off your subject. I especially like the echo of the stick in the water. And yeah, what does he do next? Can't swallow the whole thing, can he?
