This little egret taken this morning, I have edited the raw file and am quite pleased with the rim light on the front of the bird, I would like comments as to the chosen crop please.
currently cropped with rule of thirds, this shows a bit of the environment the subject is in but do the bright tones in vegetation left hand side at the top the of the photo distract from the image subject ? if so do you think it would be best to burn them in and keep the environment, or go for the straight portrait crop of the subject and remove the distraction completely
thanks in advance for any comments.
