WOW!!!! Outstanding photos, wonderful landing shots. Here my contribution. Great Egret (Ardea Alba) I don't remember well but I think it was taken with a 30D and 70-200mm at 200mm, handheld, RAW. Saludos, Rene

Very nice motif shot, Rene..... there are basically two ways to isolate the subject and "force" the viewer to concentrate on it - one is to render the BG OOF, the other is isolation by luminosity, which is aptly demonstrated here.

This looks like some kind of artwork in easter colors. I can almost feel the flapping of the duck's wings as it is about to land. Nice one Manny !!!!
