    Default Snowy Egret - banking

    Banking shot of a snowy egret. Nikon D300s and Nikon 300mm (f/4). Handheld.

    f/6.3, 1/2000 sec., -.7 comp to preserve whites, ISO 200

    Processed in Lightroom and NIK. Original wing detail was a bit dark - wing exposure increased in Viveza, recovered wing detail in Color efex (detail extractor)

    Comments welcome.

    Thank you Satish. I was happy with the feather detail. Probably could have enhanced the upper wing detail with some fill-flash, but from the distance, I probably would have needed something like a better beamer to get the reach. Need to get one of those.
