A real beauty with great detail and the exposure is spot on. I agree a little more canvas at the top would be nice but love the beautiful action you captured in this image.

Awesome picture, nice pose.
Looks like some clone artifacts by the feet.

I could be wrong, but it looks like you might have cloned out another egret in the BG...the reflection is not indicative of the one in flight but rather a static one behind? The clone marks around the feet and near wing need to be cleaned up. Nice pose though, the wing positions are excellent. The action must have been cool to watch! :-)

I agree with Daniel about the cloning marks and the reflexion :confused:. I would like to see more room at the top.

OK, Guys you caught me! I had to go back and look at the reflection to realize it was of the bird I cloned out. Thanks for the C/C it is what pushes me to do better - It has been too easy to WOW folks on most forums because folks want to encourage by being nice. To me the BPN way is better by far. Thanks, Bob
