This cattle egret image was taken over 2 weeks ago (I don't get out to shoot very often). I processed it originally in DPP with way too much saturation and sharpening. So I just did it again with a lot less processing per Kernuak's suggestion and it does look much better (more natural).

Don't be afraid to shoot wildlife in portrait orientation (or crop) either. I also need to practice what I preach more on that score too.

No. Watch it - he may be a sniper...  ;)

Btw, great timing! Was it a one shot?
