I think it is very pretty. I love the reflections.

magicray Loc: Tampa Bay, Florida

Very nice. I would PP out the vertical stick leaning against the tree and the white barrel shape reflection in the water above the egret. Distracting.

It's nice and sharp. To improve it, you might try leveling the water line.

Beautiful shot...my only comment, it looks like it needs straightening. It has a lean to the right.

I had an opportunity when I first bought my Sigma 150-500 last year, set it up on my tripod and while I was fiddling around I glanced over and there it was, about 25 meters away...spun the camera around and took the shot as it flew away...didn't have it in auto focus and it was a bit of a blur...$$#@%&^*++ :lol: :lol: :lol:

Very nice shot, datsmar, good detail and colors, only change would be to level it, seems to dip on the right. Well done
