After a long morning of finding no birds to photograph, I went down to the Conn. Shore and found this Snowy Egret at Hawk Nest Beach. The Egret was walking in a little marsh behind the shore front cottages

I think the egret really pops quite well in this environment and the color contrast between the green grasses of the white bird are pleasing. You have done a good job in exposing the whites on the egret and the bird is quite sharp.

Nice profile of this Snowy Peter. Details look good and the whites look exposed well too.

Nice work, Peter. Excellent detail in that white plumage which is a difficult trick to pull off.
