Angela, I like the pose and composition of this flight shot. But, the far wing is just too light for me, would like to see a bit more seperation between the wing and the BG. Do like the colors on the egret. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful bird, Angela. Nice colors, excellent plumage detail, and certainly well captured in flight. About the only thing that would have improved this is a different color sky to set the bird off more. Of course, you had no control of that. Still a great image.

I really like this one Angela, the white on white seems to work well in this photograph. Love the colors and feather texture in the head and neck. Excellent Work

Excellent techs on this image, Angela. Very cool to get this white morph in a flight shot. I do wish for a darker background that contrasts more with the bird.

This one has a real dreamy feel to it Angela...especially with the white BG. Excellent work as usual. BTW, I am finally making my way down to Texas in a couple months for just a few days. I am going to a place on the RIO called Santa Clara Ranch. I can't wait!

I love this bird and you caught the colors right in time. great flight pose and whites look good but I feel would look better against a darker bg.

This flight shot of the Egret would look good on any background, but I really like the white BG you have here. Magnificent bird and image. Excellent flight shot.
