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.

Wonderful shot with good exposure, Neil!
Some cropping for comp would make this one even better ...

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 ...
