    Default Great White Egret landing

    Shot on Christmas day at Ft Desoto Park. I wish the head had not merged with the wing in this one. Some canvas was added on the right.

    Great pose Bhushan. Looks like the light was a bit strong but handled well. In a perfect world the head and neck moved in front of wing would be ideal, having said that its a nice capture as is. Well done.

    Wow Bushan, well done, captured the moment of touch down:). Like the landing pose with fully extended wings and good detail in the whites with nice eye contact.

    Bhushan, tack sharp, well exposed, and I like the landing posture. If you have space, I would add a bit to the RHS.
