Great Egret and Thunder Storm

Comment:
Well, the original is pretty spectacular, but this takes the prize.
those forbidding clouds, eerie light and the pristine egret whites
make this a strong keeper.

for some reason this reminds me of the time a friend was showing off a pretty lake/reservoir. I asked if swimming was allowed. Her "no, this is a town water source" answer was accompanied by a great white egret suddenly taking off at one end of the lake. He flew the length of the water, pooping all the way.

Wow, in the first place, a great capture, in the second, a super interpretation.
This is a transition into a new and exciting creature.

LOL, I'm sure your husband has other attributes where his taste is best,
BUT, really this, IMO, is the best. The sky is a brilliant addition, and
if you happened to add just a tad more blue, that wouldn't hurt anything.

Sure does make the brickwork stand out - great colors, too.
