Not the ideal perch but loved the background a lot. Thx for looking.
40D. 400 5.6L wide-open. iso 640. 1/1600s (had set up the iso for flight shot. which I never got!) Neat Image did a fine job of noise reduction. some USM on the egret.
Good exposure and a lovely statuesque pose as well as being well composed. Would love to have seen a different perch but still a very beautiful capture Kaustubh. thanks for sharing.
Kaustubh, well controlled on the whites, and I like the stately pose and HA. The egret stands out so well against the dark green BG. We cant choose where they decide to land.
