Wings

Snowy Egret, Alligator Farm, St Augustine Florida

First thanks to all the gang from Florida who made our (the NY gang) stay even more enjoyable. It was so nice meeting everyone and also nice meeting the folks on the workshop by Robert Amoruso and Robert O’Toole. The workshop looked awesome, I could tell people really got a lot out of it with their personal touch and lectures.

This image was made while this guy was on his way back to the nest. It was fun trying to make a nice image with those difficult backgrounds!

George, Sweet capture! The whites are perfectand the reflections work for me. I might cloe out the small light spot upper left behind bird. Again, because I like it: Great job. Bob

[Arthur Morris]

Superb as noted above. My favorite part of this strong image is that the face is refectly positioned on the far wing. The BKGR is superb.

Hi George,

I'm glad you were able to make it to our GTG. I really like the contrast on this one... The wings are very well exposed. I wish for more room all around but that will be it for me.

Exactly what you were going for.. well executed !

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Love this George. Beutiful wing position and flight pose with a killer BG. Your timing was perfect !!!

[Joe Senzatimore]

You got what you wanted!!!! Excellent image and a great trip as well. Had great fun meeting everyone.

[Robert Amoruso]

Great wing position George. I like the dark BG. Know this personally now with all the images I took of him going back and forth along the swamp.

Nice meeting you too.

Congratulations. I have nothing else to say more than people has said. But I want to join the chorus of superlatives.
