Hello Jim,
Excellent capture of this Great Egret with a beautiful reflection in the water. Sharp details and fine colours. I also like the bushes you've included on the left as they add beauty by their reflection in the water too, even if it puts the subject in the centre. Well done!
Many thanks, Ulla

Hello Jim,
You were certainly patient in waiting for this egret to help you make capture of him with his capture!
But you made a fine capture anyway, with excellent sharpness, lighting, contrasting dark BG and fine reflection in the water. The composition works well to include the greenery in this shot too.
TFS,

Hi Jim,
a good capture of this Egret.
Sharp with good detail and lighting.
The composition could be improved by a tighter crop on the left of the bird.
Well done,
Joe

And patience is working well for you Jim. Not sure how long you have been doing this. I get my bioreading mixed up. Yet it appears as though you are becoming better friends with your cameras. Very nice focus and composition.

This is a lovely, peaceful image Jim. I like it a lot. The light limited to just the greenery and the egret is stunning. The reflections add so much to the whole composition. Technically the image looks really good.

Hello Jim,
Most of all I like the fantastic colours. The Egret contrasts very well against the dark BG.
Great POV, DOF, reflection and sharpness.

It does have that tranquil feel to it. Wonderful image exposed with great colour and detail, the lighting is beautiful. I love the reflection rippling in the water, composition is great.

Hello Jim,
a wonderful composition, the white bird so quiet and his reflection with the little ripples of the water. Which is more patient, the Egret or you? Great shot.
Ciao,
