Caught this guy fishing for frogs along a reed bed this morning. A bit of a crop on each pic though as this was at distance--was great to get back out again though.

Love the last one in particular. The reflection makes it. Well done.

Nice set Mark. Last one is my fav, but it looks to have a bluish tint on my monitor compared to the others.

Very nice set of shots, the backgrounds really compliment the bird. I agree with the blueish cast on the last one.

Thanks folks. I will have a look at the last one but all were processed pretty much the same. The last image has the bird in a different location to the others as it flew away and returned a moment later further up the pond so maybe light conditions etc.

Loving the last one, nicely done indeed!

Yeah agree with above, the last one works well especially with that reflection :)

Is this any better or not. Adjust the temp, reduced the blue, increased the yellow to make more of the reedbed-
