Great shot capture, he looks like he is in control!

Not at my time of life!!  I can't see aby distortion;  A beautiful pose and I like the perspective, detail and lighting.

Pierre, Ruud, thank you both for your comments, and for taking the time to write a few words.  Gillie

Really beautiful, surreal landscape, well captured.

Incredible capture and beautiful work.

Excellent composition and treatment.

Lovely.  The lone figure creates interest;  what is he doing on this vast lonely beach at the edge of night?

Beautifully composed and executed.

Thank you all for taking the time to comment, and for your kind words.  Alex, right on both counts :)

One of the penalties for being able to find beautiful images such as this, is living in the frozen north.  Such a moody sky and wonderful geometric pieces of ice , but it is almost May!  When does it melt?

Snowy egrets are a delight to watch and photograph at this time of year.  A great capture of what might seem to be an aerial ballet, although your title tells us what they are really up to!!

Lovely pose, great detail and perfect background.

Very beautiful, with lovely colour and clarity, although I too would have liked a vertical format with more of the stalk.

Yep!  Reminds me why I left.  Atmospheric processing and good composition.

Thank you both for your comments; the picture worked quite well as an Easter card, but maybe the border is a little over the top for a plain photograph.

It was a relief to see that when the dogwood bloomed, there were

plenty of bees around that had survived the winter and were ready to

rock and roll.

I think the weather has allowed the various green colours to show very naturally.  Lovely viewpoint, very atmospheric.

I think the softness adds greatly to the dreamy effect of the sleeping baby.  A lovely memory,  Gillie

Your photographs made me curious enough to research the area;  this must have been an exhilarating place to visit, as a photographer.  You have captured the incongruity of this extraordinary, colorful installation set in the barren desert area really well.

Extraordinary - but a great find!

I have had problems getting the picture I was looking for here; when

the ground froze, it was a lot easier.
