Nice work. The framing is well done. You can see them close enough, but still in their surroundings as well.
The light on their feathers is good too. Nice.

ok goodfella, so why the minus points? If you see something that gives less than, please tell me why? thanks for your comments
-
Fine, I'll automatically change it to full stars then, even though it defeats the point of giving reviews.
-
the point of reviews is if you see something that needs fixing, you mention it. I take criticism well but need to know why. I like to learn from others experiences as well. thank you...
-
Happy now? I gave it 5 stars. If I have to give everything I like 5 stars, what is the point of reviewing? Its a nice image, but it didn't entirely wow me.
I did NOT give it minus stars.
-
Why should I give 5 stars for everything?
-
Please go and read the rules for reviews. I really don't care but I do like to know how one really feels about my pieces. I am serious about them. If you consider it a good shot, it should get 5 or above. If you feel there is something that can be improved upon, then you give reasons along with the less than five.

that response does not deserve an answer

Good Morning Eileen
Good initial impact. Great detail and colors in both the birds and the background. I have watched Herons build nests so I am familiar with the process and this tells the story very well.
You have done very well with this image.
Congratulations.
Roger

A very nice capture of this interaction. Him with his stick and her with her critical eye...they make a fine pair. Very good detail in the white plumage and beautiful colors.

You did a great job on this shot. I love the detail, colors and the composition of the shot as well as the contrast of all the colors. Really like the detail in the feathers.

What a beautiful image of a loving couple. She looks like she is telling him where the twig should be placed. The color and clarity are excellent in this photo. I particularly like the action captured by both birds. Great work

Good artists notes and storytelling and thank you for that! This is a stunning capture and storyline of these Egrets. I like that you captured them building a nest together and with that beautiful green above their beak. Your camera techniques are good and have produced a heart warming scene and outstanding photography. Thanks for sharing these wonderful scenes.

Comment from nature rules
Excellent story to go along with the action in this photo. Thanks for those as I may have missed that twig in his mouth.
Your colors are natural and your light is playing an important part of this scene. The simple color scheme of greens and browns in the bg give these two a perfect stage for their interaction.
Clarity is excellent as usual. The open wing is lovely. Excellent capture...you were at the right place at the right time! Thank you for sharing, Eileen.

Excellent timing. You caught the interaction between these two birds at just the right moment.
Central framing of the couple keeps the story in the viewers eye.
Contrast is spot on.
Camera technique is well above par for the subject matter.
DOF is well controlled through out the frame.
A very well orchestrated take ... B-)) Bob
