8/23/06 - Great Blue Heron

I'm getting ahead of myself - tomorrow's PAD today. Haven't done the neighborhood GBH for quite a while. Chose this one for the lighting. Nothing like sunrise + 30 minutes for some great light. Used NX to tone down the background and "pop" the heron.
Folks seemed to enjoy yesterday's sunrise; did another at http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65590510 plus a nice cluster of thistles - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65590512 and the last purple cone flower in my garden - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65590515
