Reddish Egret

[Robert Kimbrell]

Another shot of this Marco Island Reddish Egret. The background shore line here is probably 250 yards away, and gives the Egret lots of room wander In and out of camera range.

Can't comment on color b/c on an uncalibrated monitor, but I find this image very appealing. Love the outstretched wings and the sense of environment. The colors are vibrant, and I like your choice of composition.

Nice hunting pose captured with full wing stretch.

I love the beautiful splash of colors here. Great pose with open wing by one of the most beautiful Egret there is. The bird do seems a bit soft at least in my work monitor, if anything a bit more sharpening would do the trick. Great photo for sure TFS

I, too, like the colors.
Perfect wing stretch as he does the dance.
I think the head and neck could be sharpened a bit.

Lovely colours and comp Robert. The bird is a bit soft, maybe some more sharpening? Good work and thanks for sharing

Agree with softness. Should be an easy enough fix?
Love the background and the bird's pose. Really special IMO.

[Joe Subolefsky]

Other then the slight softness already mentioned I like it a lot.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the setting, composition and great wing position. Sharpening issue already mentioned. Very well done Robert!
