    Taken at Ding Darling Last Sunday. at 8:00 am. I had the place to myself, Not too much to shoot, so I was thrilled when this Egret, came and gave me a private dance.

    Love this Robert It is a really nice image. The exposure and IQ look great and I like the pose of the bird. The water drops also add interest. I find the left hand side of the grey line in the background a little distracting and think cloning it would make the image even better. Not a big issue though. TFS.

    Nice soft light, all looks good to me. This Reddish is well balanced in the frame. Nicely job. Glad to see there is at least one bird in Ding Darling. After 10 years of seeing fewer and fewer birds, I didn't even go to Sanibel this year. Glad it worked out well for you.

    From what I've heard you are lucky to have even this one bird show up for you! Nice hovering pose and water drops. Nice shade of blue for the BG. Too bad about the grayish line cutting behind the head - should be easy enough to remove if you so wish.
