Gail,

What a great eye for the composition of the shot. Most photographers would have ignored the reflection which adds a complete other dimension to the picture. The colors go together amazingly well. Kudos.

Good Morning Don....you're a sweetheart and I hope your Sunday is not spent working (at least not all of it :-)

Rich...Thank you so much!  I don't usually go out so early, but this shot was taken at 7:30 a.m. just before leaving for Georgia last week.  There was a calm I had not seen before, it was wonderful and this young Heron was simply picture perfect.  I'm happy you like the shot, thanks again.

Hi Toula....The photos do look better framed, don't they.  Debi Boucher did an easy tutorial on this subject, very helpful.  Don't work too hard today, I'm going out late morning for the day :-)

Morning Andrea....Everyone seems up and at 'em early today.  Too nice to stay in though, so let's all go outside and play, after coffee of course ;-)  Have a great day Andrea.

Hi Caren....you're sporting another picture today yourself, I like this one too :-)  Thanks for such a nice compliment, see you soon.

Hi Kevin...It's a never ending process learning photography, I'm just happy to see some improvement.  That and you guys taking time to comment makes it all worthwhile.  Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for sharing with us this morning. Please enjoy the day and get ready for another week of fun.

Gail  - I was born and raised in Titusville and I truly miss the water fowl from that area. Thank You so much for bringing a little touch of home to my morning.

Gail - You were standing in the water next to a gator to get that shot, right? Have a great day!

Morning Michael....Photography can be a art form to be sure.  I'm trying to get there and I'm pretty determined.  It's a passion that cannot be denied, but I think you know that ;-)

Hi there Harry....another week of fun, yep - I'm ready.  Thanks for stopping by this morning, much appreciated.

Hi Laura....how cool is that :-)  Did you know that our very own Gary Woltal also grew up in Titusville.  Did you happen to know each other?  Do you still have family here and do you revisit from time to time.  Please call me if you're here.

Gail - I love the way you are able to talk to those birds and tell them to pose in a special way for you.  Always so perfect:-)

Thanks for the picture Gail.  I have fond memories of many Titusville windsurfing races in past years.

LOL @John....nope, the gators are starting to bellow so mating season is upon us.  I have a healthy respect for such rituals and actually find a zoom lens works much better anyway...hahahaha.  Hey I contributed to your "old photo" post.

Morning Eric...I can tell you're just about chomping at the bit, what a racehorse ;-)  Go git 'em, and I appreciate you stopping by.

Hi Shirley....it was another of those being in the right place at the right time shots.  I'm glad you like it, I ordered this as a print to frame in my bedroom.

Hey there Gail. what a beautiful and serene picture, I just got back from a morning run and I am sitting on the deck looking at the still green valley where we live. It's very nice but your part of the world has so much beauty and so diverse! Have an excellent Sunday!

Hi Myrl....you are very accurate in your comment.  I'm always talking to the animals, they actually seem interested in my voice as I see their heads change position as if they really like it.  Of course I always talk so sweetly to them :-)

Hi Gabe...Don't you just love the years past part....NOT.  Hey, happy to see you here and thanks for adding me as an associate, I've done likewise.  Have a great day

Morning Russell....nothing wrong with still green valleys.  Besides which, I think if you went out looking you would be nothing short of amazed at the diversity which exists right under your nose.  Give it a try.  Grab your camera and check it out.

And now I'm off for the day and will catch up with you all later.  Thanks for visiting my blog today :-)

Excellent capture my friend! I really like the touch of purple flowers in the background - adds nice interest to the shot!

Was he free, or did you have to pay him? LOL

Hi Maureen...thanks a bunch, always nice to see you.

Morning Sharon....how's that new laptop going?  Always so much fun getting a new toy, hope you're having a great week.

Why, thank you Lou....I'm so glad you like my handsome friend :-)

Morning Mary....I like the sound of OOOH LA LA....thanks so much...LOL

Hi Tammy....LOL, as a matter of fact I just ordered my first 3 prints.  One was on canvas and it's a little too light so I'm somewhat disappointed.  The other 2 will be here this week.  It's so important that what we see on our screens is accurate.  DO THAT CALIBRATION!!!!

Hi Debou...he was free this time and was asking for treats.  I had to explain that I can't do treats so we'll see how cooperative he is next time.  Glad you like him, the print should be in this week, fingers crossed.

Gail,

Great shot of the heron - and the reflection, wow. Very nice. How did you get him to stand inside the frame? :)

Hi Steve....I guess Debou let the cat out of the bag!!!  We pay for posing, shameful isn't it ;-)  I'm glad you like this shot, the bird itself is special to me as I thought I lost him when he fledged.  But through examination of detail I'm convinced he's my first BabyBlue :-)

Gail, what an awesome photo!  It looks like a professional postcard.  Good thing you put your copyright notice at the bottom of the page!  I really like www.copyscape.com, and I paid $5 and it includes my web-sites checked for copyright violations... and I get to put their "copyscape" logo at the bottom of each of my blogs & web pages!

I'm going to have to check our new camera to see how to put the frame around the picture. That would save so much time. LOL

Great picture!

Thanks Regina....I sent you a note about Copyscape not working on photos, it's always good to know where we stand.

Marchel....what a nice thing to say, I'm working at it and improving little by little.  It's definitely an avocation for me.

Hi Jim....here's a link to a post that Debi Boucher did telling how to do the frame.  If you don't have PhotoShop it should work in Elements.  Check it out:  Photoshop Tutorial - Creating a Frame in Photoshop CS
