This image was captured at the BPN Gatorland GTG. This snowy egret is actually chasing down a piece of delicious hotdog that owner Mike Godwin was tossing for both the birds and gators. Cloned and masked out some white refections of nearby birds and a crop.
Mark III, 70-200mm f2.8 @ 140 (f2.8@140) mm, f2.8, EC-2/3.
Thank in advance for feedback.

I like the pose and ripples, exposure looks good, too. It needs a bit CW rotation and the bird more sharpening. A lower angle would have made it even stronger. Keep them coming!

Agree on Axel's comments, and I think it could also go a little lighter?

I like the lines left in the water from the dragging feet. Agree with Axel's suggestions. Thanks for posting!

I love it, great pose and moment, although a lower angle would've probably gave you a better bit darker BG (as the trees or plants relfection in the water suggest me) and so more contrast between the bird anfd the water and even a better reflection of this was a vertical shot. Still, I like it very much!

Hi Bob,

I have to agree with Axel and Fab. Good timing! I have to pose some of mine another time!
