This looks really decadent. (I wish I could get some of it.) Good picture with lots of interest, but a bit too blue, if you know what I mean.

Nice colors - diagonal composition of the shoreline works well. Seems like too many things are competing for attention.

Bloody tame herons, huh? There's an element of conspicuous comsumption to this shot that seems let down by it's saturated colour and composition. It's like a shot of a magazine-based idyllic lifestyle ... the boat, the weather, the fishing, and hell, even the wildlife will pose for your camera :-) Of course, there are other stories, but this is what I'm seeing ... the bird adds a sense, from another view, of contrast between the leisure lifestyle (no doubt expensively provided), and the on-going battles and chores of the natural world - though so far muted by the lens of 'cost' as to be even itself prettily toned to match the landscape. In that sense, quite an embittered photograph ... but also, perhaps, a naive one.

Heh... looks like she's about to snag a bird! My dad did that once in Florida -- he snagged a pelican. We joked that he was "fly fishing."
