Kaustubh, such superb colors and pose.
Very good call on the f-stop to achieve bg separation.
Terrific comp and exposure. Lovely image.

Lovely soft light and BG. Perfect exposure control. Head is a bit lost against the body but still lovely.

Like how you caught the egret right before landing. Nice detail in the wings as well.

Kaustubh:
Sorry I missed this one. Good comments above. Agree with Ofer about the head/wing merge, but the head still stands out well. Soft light did really help with nice detail in the feathers.
I was a little bothered by the large mass of brownish green vegetation in the RLC, so just for fun tried a modest vignette of the corners to draw my attention back in towards the bird. I liked it, might be worth a look.
Cheers
Randy
