A few weekends ago spent some time at a local park and as I took pictures from a small footbridge this Egret soared right past us just a few feet above the railing. Thought it turned out pretty neat from my perspective.

Rick, thanks for the reply.

I haven't cropped them at all, just did some basic editing. I'm pretty new to photography in general. In what way would you crop them? or how were you thinking they could/should be cropped? Any insight and C&C is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Haha Mike, looks like your Egret had some local company....in a hoodie!
The images are good enough, especially the first, that you could crop the bird away from the distraction (person) and leave a clean bird image. I think that is what Rick is suggesting and I would second the notion.
