Awesome shot of the GBH in flight Bea! Very sharp and the blur bg really gives a sense of motion.

Nice flight shot. I love the way they will fly very close to the water. Nice work Bea!

Very well done pan. That is hard to do and you carried it off perfectly.

Great shot Bea, you have captured this heron in-flight perfectly and good blur in the background that gives the effect of fast motion, nicely composed shot, well done.

Well here's another, Bea - great picture!

I agree that it's the real sense of movement that makes this stand out - herons are usually slow enough to make in-flight shots relatively easy to achieve, but this one is special because of the "motion blur" of the background and water's surface.
