Looks pretty good to me, Rev - really nice and crisp shot of the egret. One thing you might consider is cloning the bright spot in the lower left.

Thanks for the suggestion. Done!

Daniel, I think you have this technique nailed. Great shot, the detail in the wings is awesome.

Excellent touch up and great capture Daniel - the details are top notch!

Daniel: Wonderful flight shot and the small adjustment made it even better. 2 thumbs up. >=))>

Rev, the control of the whites and amount of feather detail you're getting on these flight shots has been amazing! I like the perspective of this shot but it lacks the one thing most wildlife (especially avain) shots are scrutinized for, sharp detail in the head & eye/s.
I'm not really nit picking here because I couldn't come close to something this nice. Just pointing out what I have read & seen over and over. Wish it were mine, great work!
