The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
This is from my Oct 13, trip to Rocky Heck State Park. I was fortunate to find a small group of Great Egrets to photograph that day.
Thank you for stopping by.

Hi Dennis,Richard & Allen
Here is a re-post. I used two control points to lift the whites in the upper wings of this Egret and zeroed out the global highlight control.

Technical Details
Canon R5, Canon 100-500mm & 1.4ext, f10, 700mm, -1.7EV, 1/1600, ISO 250 and cropped by 60% in DXO PhotoLab 7.
Great pose, Peter. I think you could go a bit brighter on the bird. Here’s a version where I selected the bird applied a luminosity mask targeting the whites, but limiting the high end and brought them up with a curves adjustment. I think you can do the same thing without the luminosity mask-just pull down the white point end of the curve a little bit to ensure you don’t blow out the whites.
Peter: that’s a WOW photo as the pose you’ve captured is excellent. One very minor suggestion would be to bring up the whites on the upper third of the bird’s left wing just a bit. It has the slightest grey cast. Fantastic otherwise.
Hi Peter, very nice pose you captured and I like the green on the head of this individual. Striking. Dennis’ repost looks good to me as well. Nice catch.
