I like the lighting and the postion of the egret. IMHO the heavy black borders don't help, but distract. I would loose them. Thanks for posting.

I like this... very serene. Can't see it in a bigger format but it looks sharp to me. Maybe try cropping a bit from the bottom part that might take away a bit of the "black border" argument.

Hello Augusto,
I really like the effect you have with all the surrounding darkness and reflection. The only thing I find odd is the dark shadows on the neck and back of the egret. Those shadows don't appear in the reflection.
Thanks for posting,

Stunning shot! Love the image! I actually like the border the way it is, it immediately draws my attention to the Egret. The only thing I can see, or so it appears, that there might be loss of detail-blown out parts in the front part of the body...but then, I cannot really tell with an image this size.

I like the bird and the reflection but the dark oof objects on the left and right side of the frame are distracting to me.
