    To Moderators,

    It has been awhile the last time I was here, Howler-Cat is a nickname I've been using throughout the last few year so it was a habit using without reading your guidelines. My appology. Please, do what you have to do to keep your guidelines. I will be more than happy to repost or you can merge the two posts into one with my name as a username. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Binh:

    Excellent pose, somewhat uncommon for a GBH, looks more like a reddish egret's hunting style. Water drops a plus, as is the open bill. The image is very high contrast, might consider toning that down a bit to help with the dark shadowing.

    I wish the upper background wasn't quite so bright, it draws the eye away form the bird a little. It would be very easy to burn it in with a medium sized brush.

    Overall however, nice job!

    Randy
