Dancing Egret
This one is from SWF IPT taken on a cold rainy morning at the Little Estero Lagoon. This Reddish Egret was running around getting fishes. I used ACR to adjust the exposure and then used selective colors to remove the color cast on the white bg. Used Topaz simplify and applied curves for contrast. Applied usm on the final web version. Hope you like it.

Indranil It has a nice painterly high key look. I love the pose and the raised foot.
Indranil, this is a wonderful pose and I really like the processing you applied to it also. Great work!

Wonderful pose and momentum. Love the high key effect, Indranil!
You know I love high-key images Indranil and this is a nice one. Love the dynamics of the moment captured and your processing works really well. I would suggest using a small border of gray for these images to help define the frame.

Real nice composition Indranil! Love the pose and perspective on this, and just the hint of reflection and water in front. Like the lighted underwing, and soft painted look as well.
Indranil, this is very dreamlike and wonderful. love the pose and how you cropped it and the very painterly way you applied the filters. beautiful.
