Voted earlier coming back to comment.

Fabulous colors and great details. But what makes this shot stellar is the being there to capture the moment that this stork/crane ensnares the snake for his lunch. Fabulous capture of wildlife.

This is a nice wildlife shot. I think a tighter crop on the head and snake would make it a lot better.

Great image of this purper heron and its catch. Only (little) distraction is that green halm/leaf interacting with the catch.

Good environmental shot. I would like to see the bird more closely cropped. The best part of the image is the bird's head/neck and the snake.

Patience and timing culminate in a fabulous image. I particularly like the natural environment and peep hole composition and excellent f/stop dof. Needs a tad more space to the right, nitpick. VWD.
