A very beautiful nature capture presented here! Your fine composition captures a very enjoyable bird moment. Sharpness is good, just a pity that the light was not better! Nevertheless it's still a good photo!

Grace,
A beautiful picture of this beautiful Egert in flight it's feet trailing in the water below as it takes off it's wings opening to take a down beat & get lift off their shape that of the wings on an Angel's statue in Church. The soft blue grey of the water below making the perfect backdrop. Beautiful artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

What a great egret in action, love the details and textures in the white feathers, like the feet draging in the water, a pleasure to look at, thank you for sharing, dale

Wow!!!!! Super beautiful shot. The swan looks so graceful as it leaps from the water on a takeoff. The contrast in the feathers are awesome. Love the way the long legs are dragging in the water and causing ripples. Such a graceful, elegant and well done photo.

Very nice capture of this egret in flight. Good stop action with sharp focus. The details of the whole bird are sharp and easily seen. The wings are especially nice. The whites are well controlled with no apparent blowout. Background works well. Good job!

A beautiful perspective and a very fine exposure for the white plumage. I like the composition and the natural colors. The splashing water is fantastic.

Really?
It makes me think of a large white Pterosaurian creature engaging in some fishing in the shallows of a warm prehistoric sea who's been started by a Tylosaur or a Pliosaur moving in on him just below the surface! : )
( I guess your interesting photo spurred my imagination,my friend! : D )
'Good Show'!

Angelic is the perfect title for this beautiful image! The wings do make me think of angels wings! This is an amazing perspective! Its a great stop action shot, its well photographed with good focus and its clear to view. The exposure is good and the whites show nice detail. I love this image and really appreciate the opportunity to view it! Beautiful work!
