I've been watching these little herons zip by me for 6 months and never been able to get satisfactory photos as my Auto Focus was not fast enough. I finally got lucky on Thursday. Neil. 27th,October,2005 MPNR, Hong Kong,China. Nikon D100 plus Nikon 80-400mm ED VR (hand held) iso400,1/1000sec/f8 (manual exposure) http://www.pbase.com/neilfif11/image/51417695.jpg

KK, Thanks. I was thinking of cropping out the water but I like the color. Would it work with just the green background? Neil.

Neil, I took the liberty to repost your image here hope you don't mind. One option is to add some canvas to the right to get the 'norm' aspect ratio ... KK Hui FRPS www.geocities.com/kkhui_001
