Hi Merv,
What i love about this image is the composition. Also the wing position is beautiful. Could this take on a little more brightness?? otherwise a beautiful frame!!

Hi Ramesh, I played with the brightness and pushed it to where I was comfortable. any further to the right in lightroom and the highlights where starting to blow.
cheers for the comment.

Love the comp and the tension of the wings almost touching the water. Very nice flight shot.

Thats Ok Merv. Whites are always delicate and should be pushed only until where you are comfortable. I get your point perfectly. Again a very well done image you have.

Very nice image.
I like the reflection very much and the color palette.

Hi Mervin, these great egrets do have an unusual flying pose dont they - very similar to ours here in SA. Whites look good, and well done on getting a full reflection.

Nicely exposed Merv, but what makes this for me is that awesome reflection!

Love the shot, wing position is nice.
However, I feel that it has a lot more negative space on the bottom. I rather see less bottom and a bit more on top.
