Snowy Egret
Hi All,
I made this image at Bear River Migratory Refuge last week. Ideally I wanted to get snowy egret with reflection but could not quite make it this time.
Nikon D500, Sigma 150-600 sports lens
ISO 400, f/7.1, 1/2000 sec
Finally I made the switch to Photoshop cc.
Post Processing:-
Vertical Cropping in Lightroom
Noise Reduction using Neat Image
Layers, Masking in Photoshop cc
Let me know your comments on the same.
Hi Krishna, Yes sometimes the elements prevent us from getting that glassy water for a nice reflection, but keep it up and you will get it.
I have a few suggestions for this image, additional contrast would have the image pop a bit more. Also be aware of your horizon lines,
in calm water just select one side of the water ring and draw a line to the other to see how far you are off, this will help you until you get the hang of it.

Thank you for your feedback. This is a nice way to check the horizon. I was not sure how to check, will correct the same.Originally Posted by Tim Foltz
I will also see if I can add additional contrast to the image.
Thanks

Hi Tim,
I Reprocessed the image.
I found my mistake I was masking on bird and increased the contrast which was my mistake. I corrected it and also corrected the alignment.
Reposting the processed images.
Thanks
Krishna
Looks better Krishna but you do have a few blown whites now...
