I just wanted to thank you for selecting my picture Great Egret Preening as this weeks winner.
I took this picture at the Green Cay Wetlands in Boynton Beach Florida. The bird was standing atop a metal roof on a single story building. That is how I got it against the sky. I usrd a Nikkon D-90 and a sigma 400mm f5.6 APO lens.
Thanks again
Kenh571
