Handsome Egret

Even though this is a simple pose, I like it. I think the whites and image sharpeness turned out well. Processed using Lightroom 5 and Photoshop CC 2014. Comments and critiques welcome.

Handsome Egret indeed. Great pose, he looks deep in thought. This is just a sweet clean shot Jerry with sharp detail and the whites look right on too. I like the green lores a lot cool

Excellent control of whites in obviously harsh light. Breeding plumage and the green lores add to the authenticity of this shot. cool

Excellent details in the whites nicely handled in what looks like bright light. devil

This is perfect. And the large image is even more perfect, if that is possible.

Jerry,

Great pose and great detail, my only nit would be the blue which I think could be a little lighter?
