Great Blue Heron - High Contrast Version

A friend and I went out this morning to see if we could find a Great Blue Heron that had been hanging around at a local park. At first I didn't see him, but when I looked again, there he was. We watched and photographed him for a few minutes and than there were two herons, and then 3 and then four. They flew in and out, so we couldn't photograph all four at the same time, but it was a pleasure to see four of these magnificent birds at one location. Due to my recent injury, I could only use my Canon sx200 point and shoot camera, but I kind of liked this picture. I cropped the original somewhat and used a couple of PhotoShop tricks to get this effect. I hope you enjoy it.
