undoubtedly a perfect name,
the goliath heron (ardea goliath) is the World's largest heron.
unfortunatly its not a confident and common bird so in many years i never got full frame and clear photos.
those birds are quiet shy but i got better result using a very little boat drifting with engine off.

Der afrikanische Goliath Reiher ist die größte heute noch lebende Reiherart mit einer Höhe von 135 bis 150 cm Zentimetern. Wirklich eine imposante Erscheinung!
Aufgenommen im Vogelpark Niendorf an der Ostsee!
Goliath is a character in the biblical Book of Samuel, described as a Philistine giant defeated by the young David in single combat.
size doesn't matter, it's HEART, COURAGE, and COMMITMENT that matters. Think bigger than the challenge, be bigger than the obstacle, and act as if it's impossible for you not to fail.
Never this thematic has been more actual !
( No religious comment Please..not the point here ! )

Ardea goliath - Goliath Heron
Le héron goliath est le plus grand des échassiers. Il vit uniquement en Afrique et cette image est faite au Kenya dans les marais du lac Baringo.
In a crater of ash and smoke, the light fades from the beast's eyes, yet seem to remain open in their charred blackness - appraising the hero from a realm beyond death.

A giant coucal endemic to Halmahera and very difficult to photograph. Despite its size, it quickly hides in the vegetation of dense trees.

Another attempt to convert one of my goliath heron pics into something different - I would appreciate all comments favourable or not.
Just come back home to find lots of favourable comments - thank you for that, I will take it further now that I have so many independent views.
As to what I did - selected the heron and reflection and masked off to get the shapes I wanted. Then a couple of coloured layers to provide the background and a dark vignette to concentrate the picture. I think that was this version.
In between the heavy showers I managed to get down to The Titanic Quarter just as the sky was putting out an orange glow.

I want to do a photo series of all my "Big Girls" This is my Goliath. She is one of the largest avatars I've made. Next in the series will be my dryad, troll, centaur, orc, hobgoblin and of course dragonborn. I made a lot of these avatars a long while ago and they are some of my greatest creations. I really want to share them with you.
Side note, this avatar is 8ft in sl. It's hard to get the entire avatar in a shot while also being close enough to get good details on her face and outfit. So I will prob do tilted shots for the big girls.
