The Staring Contest...
Hi Everyone,
This very cooperative snowy egret posed for me during my last visit to Florida in March. I think that the side-lighting makes the picture more dramatic, although I am probably under arrest...:cool:

As always many thanks to you all - I really value the time and trouble that you all take with the suggestions and comments.
Best to all,

Lady Nicki,
This is excellent, I love the selective crop and composition. I like this pose...:) The whites are in check, and the baby blue background makes it pop...good show...:cool:
Way cool Nicki I really like this !!!! Elegant pose, killer bg and fluffed feathers !!!
I like this images with eyes totally square but this is working real well !!! Also you did well with the side light and is helping with the mood !!!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that golden glow of light across his lower breast! This is beautiful...so well done!!! The BG is gorgeous and you did a wonderful job on keeping the whites in check. Bravo!!!
Congrats Nicki - beautiful :)
