Re: Peso-Blue Heron
Actually Ann and Jay, I sort o liked that lighter cap at the top, but primarily, it was the curved upper sections of the reeds that appealed to me.

Re: Peso-Blue Heron
the size across browser shouldn't change... but if you had intentionally or accidentaly done a resize once when in one of them, you might not realize that.. (speaking from experience) I look at all the pesos in firefox, because when I click on a link in thunderbird it opens up in firefox because thundnerbird is mozillas email system. Whenever anyone in photo.net posts I have to shrink the images to see them by quite a bit, likewise with yours... If I don't change the view to less than 100% I can't see the whole image. no reason to change what you are doing at all ann On 5/1/2017 10:47 PM, Jack Davis wrote: Thanks, Ann!

Re: PESO: Blue Heron Fishing
Thank you Ann and yeah it would have been nice if all that wasn't there but that at the time was the best view of him. After awhile I did walk on around as I knew there was a little trail that would take me to the side of the creek. There was a small limb laying across the trail so as soon as stepped over it I stepped on a stick and it made a cracking sound. Well the Heron heard me and looked my direction and flew off.

Re: PESO - Blue Heron
Yesterday I looked again at the location. It turns out there are a bunch of dead trees poking up in the middle of this pond (created by beavers). Those dead trees have no foliage or small branches on them. The pattern of their bark is what you are seeing in the reflection. For me, knowing it is bark reflection I am seeing, makes it feel a little better. In any event, when the subject is surrounded by water, you get whatever reflects in the water for the background.

I don't think it is bokeh, I believe it is reflection background - you would probably see much more of if it were bokeh - as taken, it is very discreet like portions of reflections of tree trunks or ripples or some such.
