Great Blue by BillDaly

A mile and a half from my home.
These beautiful birds have become more visible of late - most likely because of land development, as they are naturally shy towards people.

Honeypie - I put areflection in several times, but it didn't look right - I finally decided to move on - maybe I shouldn't have.

I don't know, considering the length of the reflection from the bridge to it's reflection, would we be able to see the bird's reflection? I kinda don't think we would be able to.

Otaner - I thank you for your comments, I saw them as light hearted. I visited your gallery, but could not leave comments - I'll try again on a computer.

For the first time in a long time.... a painting not showing off "original" characters, or containing the overly obsessed-over furries.... Just something of beauty, truly worthy of being reffered to as art...

It's great to see another post from you, Bill! Good grief, this foliage is amazing!
I love how the bridge is so subtly detailed, but its reflection shows all the little bricks that make it up. Makes everything above the water look nice and bright! Really excellent work!
