Pacific Reef Heron
Voting period ends on 2 Apr 2019  at 09:08:43 (UTC)
 * Reason:I first saw species in Thailand in 2011, then I didn't see it again until last year. But it took until march this year to get a good photo. This species has both a light and a dark morph. This illustrates the dark morph well.

 * Comment – I see posterization bands on upper right side of the image. Also wondering what that ghost-like background shadow is above the tail. Bammesk (talk) 15:55, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
 * (Adam Cuerden) You're correct. I think I derped and post processed in 8 bit instead of 16. I did it again and uploaded over the top. I can't comment about the darker bit of background near the tail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JJ Harrison (talk • contribs)
 * JJ Harrison, somehow the region where sky meets ground got worse, I see bands from x,y=(0,1900) to (4200,1400), they are minute, but there were none in your first upload. Bammesk (talk) 01:17, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Tried again. How is it now? JJ Harrison (talk) 10:20, 26 March 2019 (UTC)
