I cannot imagine why no one has commented. It is one of your VERY best. I love the look in their eyes as they gaze at each other, the palm fronds (?) make a beautiful framing and the blue sky sets it all off. One more thing, I have trouble with, is how well you handled the bright sunlight. It's great! You could also delete it and submit again. See you! ~rhonda

Thank you for your fine comments in my behalf. I've lost all of the ratings I ever had on all my other photographs, so thanks to you, I now have a total of 1 rating! Keep 'em coming! ;-)

Splendid! John, that shows your spirit. Waiting and CRACK! Fired. Wonderful egrets. Cheers.

I really like how the two egrets are looking at eachother! Well captured.

Thanks, Vikram, for your comment on my Egrets. It was a spectacular moment, actually. Breeding Egrets get very beautiful. How are you doing? I'm not really liking this new UseFilm format as well as the old, I'm afraid. It's slicker, but seems less accessible for some reason. Am I getting stubborn in my old age?

Jorge, thanks for your kind comments. I am not satisfied with this new "Usefilm" format; comments don't always get sent to me via e-mail, and it seems less easy to simply see people's reaction to a picture, or even to find my old friends and their pictures. In frustration, I am pursuing other ways of displaying my photos. How are you doing? I haven't even looked around recently at other Usefilm entries.


Jorge Vasconcelos   {K:33746} 4/5/2004
I agree with you.At first it was a total disaster.Now still is confusing and missing important things.It is infuriating slow, for times ,just impossible. I lost all the names of my portfolios,the pictures were set by that order, now they are at random.I send you one, yes,one comment and discover four or five clones.To indicate speed and overture maybe nice for the purist,but I find no interest in it.Just an added complication.In short ,I do not like the new way.
Regards
jorge

Wonderful scene and birds!I have seen your portfolio,it is very beautiful.Photos of animals in motion are very difficult.With best regards,Ursula


Daniel S. Garcia   {K:13946} 4/8/2004
Awesome image John! Hard to find animals willing to pose and these two did just that for you. Good work!!!


JAMES McCONNELL   {K:1750} 5/4/2004
Dof, lighting, composition, subjects isolated from bg, no distracting elements, everything is perfectly done. It doesn`t get much better than this, regards, -Jim
