Another Image from gatorland last week.
To deal with a combination of light and shadows created by vegetation I decided to use flash as main source of light in this image.

Sid, composition is very very good. Great details and sharpness. But personally, am not a big fan of flash. One suggestion is to warm it up a bit. The green looks a bit on the bluer side.
I really love this one Sid. I think it is one of your best. I don't think I have ever seen an egret image with this pose. The exposure is perfect as is the sharpness. I just might try lightening the eye a tad, and warming up the lores as KD said.
Looking forward to more!!
Aidan and KD,
Eye and lore work .. how does it look now?
thanks for your time and suggestions.
Wonderful image Sid, great detail and composition

Hey Sid. I love the repost. It looks great.
Sid,
Great work here, an interesting comp with the lighting handled well..
Sid, unable to see the repost...but Aidan could. not sure whats wrong.

Sid,
Lovely composition. I never saw the original but the re-post looks wonderful. I too am not a fan of flash but in this case it worked very well!
It was so nice to meet you...and thank you for the hotdogs!
