This Great Egret had just pulled back from a failed plunge for a fish.
The droplets trace the movement of the beak tip from the water.
Early sunrise light.

Sharp with neat water droplets. I am not a big fan of the yellow off-angled light as the image looks a bit muddy and the shadow of the wing on our right is a big distraction for me. Me-thinks that moving two or three steps to your left would have been the best move ...

I like the water droplets as they tell a story but I am with Artie on this one.
Image looks a bit yelllow/muddy. I would take a bit off the top for sure,

That far wing looks great! I was gonna say that the yellow is a bit much, especially on the lower neck and chest, with Artie's advice is a good one. Good low angle, and I like the look of concentration.
