13-APR-2015 Vern Rogers (fotabug fotos)

Fishing Pro

Yesterday, I posted a photo of a Great Blue Heron waiting for some fishermen to get a fish on their line. I have seen them go for the fish before the fisherman could reel it in! But the GBH is actually an expert fisher. Today's image shows it is quite capable of catching its own fish. :)

Superb shot Vern! Love how sharp the bird and fish are and the background blue almost seems to show the speed with which it just caught the fish. Linda S

Just marvelous, Vern! Were you using a polarizer? No unwanted reflections or hot spots at all and great saturation! :)
