What a stunning photo and bird...wow! The composition is award winning. The details allow the viewer to see every feather and intricacy of its colorful beak! I really like how the bird is in a portion of the foreground and the delicate feathers add such beauty and drama in the background. A beautiful and unique photo!

This is indeed a beautiful portrait of a White Egret Eileen, and I especially like the elegant looking flying feathers in the background. The light is falling on the bird in such a lovely way, and it is standing out from the background in an excellent way.
The focus is spot on and sharp showing truly clear and well defined details in the feathers of the bird, and the white balance and exposure is perfect.
The photo has got such a fine cropping and the bird has got a fine placement within the frame. Indeed a beautiful and well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF. Worth 6 stars, but I have run out.

Excellent design elements in this photo. I like the fan of feathers arching throughout the left side of the photo, meanwhile having the stoic and graceful figure of the bird on the right. The diffused sunlight also radiates very well, creating some diverse hues in the white feathers of this bird, making it look more angelic.

I think nobody received so many six for a pic, and this one is well deserved;
an outstanding close up of this male egret with excellent sharp details and exposure for the white plumage;

Well done on the capture and the editing. The composition is excellent and the colors are well exposed. The I like the soft whites and the bokeh in the background. Nice.

This is an exceptional portrait nature image of a white Egret. This wonderful image is sharp, clear and focused. Beautiful light and an amazing display of plumage to frame this capture. The orange beak and green colour and yellow eye is a stand out! All the best in the contest.!
