    I like the light, mood and the action captured. I would have liked the bird to be facing more towards the camera.

    Always a favorite bird. Can't go wrong photographing a Reddish Egret in my book.
    There doesn't seem to be a discernable horizon. I keep looking for one and it's not there, I little confusing.
    Also like to see some more detail on top of the wings in the shadows.

    I like the fishing pose, light, and colours, and this is really sharp. Lovely complimentary colours in the BG, and all I wish for is a better HA.

    Good golden light, and typical fishing pose for this species. Not only is the head angled away, but so is the whole body (which is normally OK IF the head is turned at least parallel to us).

    Nice raised wings, light, and BKGR but BAA (bird angled away) with matching head angle = weak image...
