Great pose and I love the soft colors! Image is very sharp, though I might clone out the "sparkles" of water drops or just leave them unsharpened so that they don't stand out so much. Nice job!
Excellent image Kaustubh! I like the pose, sharpness, IQ, composition and sweet BG.
KD, love the curves in this. Very well exposed, sharp, and the egrets bill stands out so well against the white plumage. Great pp work too.
KD- The detail in your whites is wonderful. A beautiful image, filled with interest.
Beautiful image. I like the vertical comp. You have teased out the detail in the white feathers beautifully. I would clone out the 3 or 4 specular highlights on the bill. Nice curves and flow of lines in this image,
Gail
excellent details in the whites and a great pose!

"Images of preening birds are best when the bird's head is perfectly parallel to the back of the camera." I have heard that a few times somewhere.... You nailed it here along with the WHIITEs. While I love, love, love the image I still need to say, "Higher Myer!"

Fantastic image Kaustubh. Just love the pose, the whites and the bg.
Only wish is that the green bg wasn't intersecting the head.
Nice and soft looking feathers, in a good way. I like the bg and the pose as well.
Excellent preening portrait pose. Nice soft light too. The blue of the water really make this guy stand out. I especially like the softness of the details on the feathers.
Super sharp and well exposed with good colours. Super portrait
