HI Chi,
An excellent portrait on this Cattle Egret. A spot on exposure has the colors and detail looking vey good. Well seperated from the nice OOF backround. Perfect composition and framing. Nice work here.

Hi Chi

Lovely coloured plumage on the head and breast. He looks like he is standing tall and giving you a nice pose. Great eye contact and perfect OOF BG. Top quality shot! YFS.

Hi Chi..
To be honest I'm a bit angry:-)
Tell you why...
Very beautiful image...everything okay.
But..the overexposed part in the left corner could be fixed;cropped,burning tool,...
That said...I DO like the image very much...

Hello Chi,
Your absence is sorely missed here on TN. Maybe work is keeping you away.
What a magnificent picture of an egret you have posted today! It is exactly the work of this high level that stands apart on this site and instils inspiration and impetus in mediocres like me.
Thanks for sharing this great image and hope you will continue to enrich us with your great pictures.

The natural colors are lovely, the POV is excelllent and the DOF impecable. Further more, the details are very clear and sharp, the exposure is managed greatly and the composition very nice.

Bravo and TFS

Hi Chi

It has been said (in a friendly manner though) that I tend to write too long critiques so I'll try to keep this one short, which is rather difficult when I have to deal with such beauty. Anyway, I doubt that I can teach you anything about photography.

This is superb in all aspects. The composition, cropping, colour, sharpness, DOF, BG, contrasts, and exposure radiate brilliance. If it has to be said though, the only small nit might be the little OE in the white area over the shoulder, but you know that.

Splendid work as always and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Chi

Superb shot, the composition is excellent as is the POV and the pose, nice details and great colour tones on the Egret, nicely dappled BG that compliments the image perfectly.

Hi Chi, This is a fantastic shot. It is extremely sharp so everything about the bird stands out very well. Your depth of field worked out very well highlighting the feathers against the background they way you did.

Thanks, John

Fantastic sharpness! The colors are so nice and sweet in a way. Details are spot on. The whites are over-exposed here, i wonder if you couldn't adjust in camera mode or PP, perhaps a slightly tighter crop off the whites to release the attention there.
