Nice hunting pose and good control of the whites

[Sid Garige]

Like every thing about this except OOF weed in the foreground Ian. Great light, exposure and pose. Excellent details too.

[Ian Cassell]

Thanks. Sid, I must admit that I left the weeds there because otherwise I thought that it would look like many other hunting egret images I've seen. Here's a quick try without them.

[Stu Bowie]

Hi Ian, excellent whites, and I do like the fishing pose with the raised leg coming out the water. The egret is nice and sharp too. Your repost does work better.

[Frank Schauf]

Nice composition and excellent expsoure control and sharpness.

[Robert Holguin]

Excellent shot. I really like the pose, especially with the lifted foot. Exposure spot on, very nice feather detail, and I like the repost better.
Well done.
