and u did a wonderful job on the whites (which lately is refreshing) !!!!
Thanks again...... I have been working really hard on exposure. I still struggle a bit when the bird goes into flight and the light changes. I have been getting close enough to bump it up without or down without losing details
Very nice set Noelle, your whites are coming out wonderfully these days. No.5 EIF is terrific, might be nice to see a little more wood post on no.2 fuzzy feathers.

Super set Noelle.
Some of the best I have seen from you I think.
# 1 is just a fabulous shot. You caught them at such a precious moment, in a world of their own, well positioned in the frame and the whites are so well set off by the yellow in the bouy. Love that one.
Congrats.

Great set Noelle....# 1 has a real artsy feel about it...Like this one alot.. Also #3 you blurred out the background real nice and isolated your subject perfectly. The Inflight shot, #5, is great as well.....
The Egret shots are very nice, but there is no doubt about which of these is the "star turn"!!
The "high key" effect, the colours and, of course, the precise timing of the capture make for a very cool shot. I would perhaps want to crop it so it was more portrait than landscape, but still with the terns and bouy to the left side of the shot, though it looks like you were close to hitting the limit on how much you could crop?
That Egret doing the flyoever is very sharp too though!

Thanks Paul, your comments make me smile. Thanks for the CC on the crop. It was at the limit really. They were pretty far out when I took the image and it was a dreary morning with the sun coming up behind them. I love this image so much!
