An amazingly sharp image in spite of resizing. Congrats on the blue! Thanks for linking the article. I found it very interesting. I entered this picture in DPC in 2012. Not nearly as good as yours:)
That's what I like about DPC. It pushes us to be better photographers.

I guess we are both bug nerds!!!!

Congrats on the Blue. It would win in the "Clouds" challenge or an "Orange" challenge as well!

Thank you Debbi. I was driving around in the country on a misty morning looking for interesting photographic opportunities. Never thought I would see this gift of nature!

We don't get many egrets around here. I was so lucky to see him on a pond and he gave me the opportunity to take his picture. I was surprised how close he let me get and didn't seem to care that I was there. He was obviously concentrating on breakfast! I have always admired your shorebird captures and got I got lucky with this one.

POST CHALLENGE NOTE: I asked the site council to disqualify this image. I received a comment from glad2badad asking if a DPC member had taken the picture since I am in it. I realized that even though I had directed the assistant to take the image I did not set it up for her. I recognized when the comment was made that it didn't follow the rules of DPC and thus asked for it to be DQ'ed. I assure you that this is the only time I have ever submitted a picture in this manner. I have always set the picture up, used a delayed timer or remote trigger or had my wife press the shutter of the set up picture if I was in it which I believe is allowed. Sorry for the inadvertent error.

Cute. Cats always like small places to hide! Nicely focused on the subject.
