 Taken at the moment of sunrise on this rice field which gives it such a warm glow. The egret flew away as soon as I pulled up in my car. I followed him with the zoom and he landed not too far away with this wonderful wing display.

I like the setting, but the subject looks like a cardboard cutout. closer maybe. but, wildlife are so difficult to photograph. I'll give you an 8 for your nice, moody background.

The scene is nice but the bird is small and lacks detail. The whole photo seems dull and lacks lustre on my calibrated monitor.

I like the colors and composition. Only minor complaint is the power lines that you couldn't do anything about in basic editing :p

nice composition, maybe it's my monitor, but it seems like the head and neck are too bright compared to the rest fo the body, looks weird

I wish I could see more of the bird - it looks interesting. I do like the off-centered composition.
