Excellent image. Very nice IQ. I like the pose with concentration on catch, nice reflection of water on his body, low shooting angle, water ripples and composition.
Though reflection is not clear but looks artistic.

Regards,
Satish.

I'm with Satish on this one, beautiful shot Joe.

Hi Joseph, good low perspective, and you have exposed the whites nicely. I do like the waters reflection cast on the egrets body, and the bill full of weed adds to the image. I feel a touch of CCW rotation is needed. I can also see a version with about half taken away from the bottom.

Love the pose and details. Exposure control works perfect for me. Low angle, too. Fish with salad in the beak is icing on the cake.

you got sharp details and a nice exposure with good detail in the whites, light was nice too.
I wish he had a bigger fish!
