Hi Annick. This is a fine close up of the Cattle Egret. You have wonderful detail and light in the eye. The white feathers stand out so well from the BG. Natural colours in the bill and eye. well done TFS.

Hi Annick,

Lovely colour and detail on the plumage. What i especially like is the play of light and shade on the head and neck which together with the background makes the bird come "alive".

Very good portrait of the Cattle Egret. The Sharpness of the subject, OOF BG, clarity, POV, Composition and DOF are all very good in this pic. The detail shown is excellent.

Well done

Hoi Annick,
Een prachtig portrait van deze statige vogel. Ik vind vooral de intense blik en de zachte achtegrond in deze foto erg bijzonder. Natuurlijk heb je de foto weer met erg mooi detail weten vast te leggen. Je belichting is ook erg indrukwekkend, het wit is perfect wit zonder ook maar een detail te verliezen.
Groeten,
Niek
