The weather were not to kind to me and the light were from the wrong side ,although this were not a plan shot

Cool pose and interesting composition. Details look good, too. I would tone down the highlights some more. In this case I don't mind that the bird is slightly angled away.
You capture a strange but appealing pose here. I have never seen a Little egret pulls this type of move before but always a fun bird to photograph. What is in the water below the bird?
Wicked stuff Chris and great opportunity shot! I bet this fella is practicing for the next olympics to be in the SA diving team? ;) Love the pose, it cries for a caption! :)
Thanks for all the kind comments..... I don't know what's in the water but it certainly drew his attention. Stu it did not touched the water, he ignored the bait and carried on flying.
Akos if we would enter him in the SA diving team this dive be our firts Gold medal:)
