Z8, Nikon 180-600mm & 1.3ext, f13, -.7EV, 1/1600, ISO 4500 and cropped by 20 % in DXO PhotoLab 8. I used a auto mask on the winging to lower the whites.

Very cool image of this egret, Peter. I might crop a touch off the right side and maybe the bottom to decenter the bird a bit more. You might also look at subduing the clump of specular highlights under the center of the bird as it’s a bit of an eye magnet.
I’m curious-what was the colorless background here?
Nailed it , Peter. Excellent detail and I like the wing position, and that you caught it before it had passed you. Whites look very good and the yellow in the face and feet pop. I could see a bit more room in front for the egret to fly into.
Hi Peter, nice details and exposure on the bird. Love seeing these snowy’s. Agree with cropping suggestions above. Nice catch.
Hi Allen Brook, Allen Sparks & Dennis
Thank you for the comments. As for the framing, that all the room I had in the frame. DXO PhotoLab can’t add to the frame.
