This heron in the marsh was found at the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, on the DelMarVa peninsula. I visited the area during one of those unseasonably warm periods in the month of March. The photograph, without any alterations already had a "painterly" quality to it, so I thought it might be a good candidate to print on canvas.

Lindau Island is located on Lake Constance, which is bordered by Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, is the location for this photo (as well as Lindau Lighthouse). I loved the reflections of the beautiful old buildings along the waterfront. Because it made me think of a painting, I figured it would look really nice printed on canvas.
