Quiet Stillness

We popped to Waterton Canyon to stretch the dogs legs and get some fresh air and enjoy the last light of the day.
As I approached the ponds this was the scene I was presented with, but within 30 seconds the sun had dipped behind the foothills and the heron was gone.
I'm not pleased with this shot as it was taken in haste, but I'll bear it in mind next time and be a little more prepared!!

I love this version of On Golden Pond much more than your other OGP!

I would love to capture a heron and you did it so well with the reflection.

It seems common that such a nice shot as this is captured unplanned. I think it works well. V

Beautiful shot Dave - it might have been less than the perfection you were looking for, but it's outstanding all the same.

It would be a beautiful photo even if the heron was not there, with those lovely reflections and colour.
