    Default Looking Good

    For the ladies:D
    A Cattle Egret in full breeding colors has been on my wish list for a while and was the reason I bought a year long pass at Gatorland which has turn out to be worth every penny. Image was made yesterday and the rookery will only get better in the coming weeks.

    40D, 500 f/4 +1.4TC, 1/500 at f/ 7.1, Manual Mode, Evaluative Metered, Raw, ISO 200, Tripod, slight crop and used a linear burn on the whites (Thanks Artie)

    Fantastic close up. The detail, exp and colours are superb and it really works well on the dark green BG

    I´m not an expert, but it looks great to me....very sharp even with the 1.4 TC.
    I need to buy the 500 f/4 as soon as possible :)

    Lovely colours and details.

    I really like the details in the whites.

    Don, This is outstanding IMO. I might take the one tiny dark dot off the bill but this is sweet.
