I have some trepidation about posting yet another Snowy Egret after all the superb ones already seen in this forum, but I thought this recent image wasn't too bad. Perched on a wharf on Dewees Island, SC, recently, in harsh mid-afternoon light, spot-metered off the bird's head.
D300, Nikon 80-400VR, hand-held.
Shutter Speed (Exposure Time) = 1/1000 second
Aperture = F10
Exposure Bias (EV) = 0/1 = 0
Metering Mode = spot (3)
ISO Speed Ratings = 250

Real good all around Richard !!! Did well with the light, perfect head angle and a cool pose !!! I like it a lot !!!
Great composition Richard,
I like that pose with the head turn...For my taste, I would like the background a little lighter...:D
Like it - well done.

I like it....especially the pose. I always think they have such a "wild look in the eye". I might add a slight round of sharpening and even select just the eye for a little extra. There's something to be said for an eye that pops off the screen and grabs your attention. Well done.
