    Hi Everyone,
    This is one from last year in Florida. Pretty much straight from the camera, side-lit in fairly harsh light. The BG is water.
    400D 100-400 @ 400
    f/7.1 1/800 sec
    ISO 200
    Exp comp @ -1
    Look forward to your C & C's :)
    Best to all,
    Nicki

    Nicki, Very neat look. I might try to tone down the area behind the neck a bit. I love the black and white look!:)

    Very nice Nicki! I really like the contrast of the light vs. background and the nice neutral whites. Lovely!

    Nicki, this is so graceful and I love the blacks and whites - it makes it look so formal:)

    Very graceful feel, Nicki. I love the black-and-white look and the sweep of the egret's feathers. I just wish the tips of the feathers weren't cut off on the right side. Lovely image though regardless. :)

    Nice image and application, Nicki.

    Nice pose and lighting, with the BLK BG.

    Love the total swirl of the feathers from top to bottom.
