Wonderful shot. I really like the lighting - it's perfect. The blurred background helps keep my focus on the Egret. Well done and good luck in the challenge.

An extraordinarily difficult subject and composition. I *hate* taking shots of white birds, even less in sunlight, and can't imagine trying to capture one in flight. An amazing capture! I'm sure it'll be under-appreciated, so just allow me to state how thoroughly impressed I am with this image! 8

Very nice lighting on the egret's face. The composition feels a little square and stiff, but still a beautiful, clean shot. 7.
