I thought it turned out kind of painterly with the noise and the panning blur.

Your egret is very lovely. If you enjoy reading about bird photography you might enjoy www.birdsasart.com This site has a lot of great information about using long telephotos to shoot wild critters.

Thanks for the link Path. Looks like an interesting fellow. I might just order one of his books.

I like them both~ But I really like the second one. Great Job :thumb .

I like the blur of the first one too.

The first captures three different birds in concert and is a nice composition.
The second captures what (to me) is the essence of the egret. Solitude.

Both very nice pictures.
