Nice moment in time to capture with a good dynamic feel created by the splash and foot positions of the two main egrets. For me personally, I can't help wishing that the wing tip on the left was complete in the frame but as it is the picture still tells the story perfectly well.

Beautiful image, and especially love the reflection in the water. DOF is just about spot on, light and colours are spot on, to qualify this as a "critique" I guess that the only thing I might consider changing would be to dull down the bright patch (stone?) under the heron's beak which tends to catch me eye.

Lovely textures and colour to this little guy, he blends in so well. DOF is quite good, it might have looked better at a slightly smaller aperture to get the big real leg in focus as well as the body but at 1/50th sec you are running out of light.

Nicely done, the owl looks a little surprised! The directional light gives some nice shadowing on the side and the top of the head, but it would be nice to see more of the side and its colours. Striking image though.

Nicely isolated from the natural background and a nice pose from the bird. Well done and thanks for sharing.

Well seen, the foreground rock in the middle of the frame lines up well with the V shape in the background making this a pleasing balanced composition. Colours are good, detail is good and the hint of the rocks under water add an element of interest to the image.

Nicely captured, subject well isolated by the big lens and wide aperture, good colour and detail and the lizard adds a point of interest. Well done.

Nicely framed and composed with some good detail.

Excellent capture with very sweet light, good sharpness, colours and DOF.

Wow, this is a nice and sharp capture of this little chap, excellent light, sharpness and oof bg. Were you on your belly to get this angle on the subject? :-)

Excellent capture, nice and sharp, good angle on the subject, good light, nicely oof background and a cracking double capture.

I would have been tempted to title this one 'Bad Hair Day' ;-) Nice and sharp capture with good colours and low POV. I like the water droplets on its back.

Can't tell you what it is, but it's a cracking capture of these twins. Excellent handling of the whites.

milloup (1716) [2010-02-13 14:32]
Excellent capture which is not at all easy to make. I'm amazed at the DOF you got out of f/2.8.

The aliens have landed, it seems ;-)) Cracking capture with excellent sharpness, good POV and nicely oof bg. The dew adds extra character to the photo.

Beautiful capture of this little hard-to-catch bird. Beautiful colours, tack sharp, nicely oof bg and excellent light.

I love watching birds having a good time, and these two clearly enjoyed their bath! Great capture of these two colourful birdies, nice and sharp, excellent light.

milloup (1716) [2010-01-30 15:40]
Wow, picture postcard quality!

milloup (1716) [2010-01-30 15:39]
Excellent capture, Grzegorz, it's amazing how these little critters will adapt their colour to the surroundings so as to stay inconspicuous.

milloup (1716) [2010-01-30 15:36]
Great capture of this very pretty butterfly. I like the light coming through the wing :-)
