Last light Heron

Started this walk with the settings; ISO 400, speed 800 & f8
by the time i found the Heron I was down to ISO 1000 speed 400 & f 5.6. the daylight hours in a scottish winter do add a challenge.

Thank you very much to all that commented on yesterdays blip. I was knocked out today to find out that it had made the Spotlight! ( I do seriously have to find out what that actually means/meant.) To be honest I thought I had cropped the hell out the image and almost never used it. I guess it is true that some times we can be our own worst critics.
