I am so glad I saved one to award this image the rating it deserves. This is truly spectacular, the spray of feathers, the detail and perfect white color, the profile and position of your subject...congratulations
I believe this is the one to set the standard for the contest.
Outstanding work Eileen.

Love this one Eileen you have definitely nailed the focus which is sharp on the eye and the mating plumage fanned in background is shown with excellent clarity. White balance and exposure are perfectly handled. :)

A fantastic shot. The white plumage is well exposed and that spray of mating plumes makes a perfect background. Very nice cropping and great colors and sharp features in the face.

What an excellent photo! I only have words of praise! The white is not blown out. The feathers are well captured. I could count them if I wanted to. The curves in the neck of the egret and the colors in the beak and eyes couldn't have been posed any better. Good luck in the contest. If you don't win, there is something wrong.

This is beautiful! The clarity and detail in the feathers and the beak are so impressive. I love how the bird's neck is backlit. The soft edges in the background are lovely. Well done!

Dresses in his or her finest plumage. The head shot is stunningly framed. The white balance is excellent as is the lighting. The background flared feathers frame the head and beak. The head/beak colors are displayed so well. The brightly colored eye draws the viewers into a dramatic scene sensual mystery.
