A natural setting and strong backlighting make the most of the exquisite plumes of this elegant bird.

Alain Boniec, Orlando FL. Great White Egret during Matting season. This male is attracting a female to mate and build a nest. Gatorland in Florida is the place to be which gives up close and personal to these Beautiful wild nesting birds. Shot on a Nikon D-200, 18-200 Zoom. No really post production except a little shadow detail brought back in CS3.
