Your exposure is masterful to retain the subtle fine detail in the white plumage (as with your delightful earlier Great Egret shot from the end of 2007). I would add that it's then really down to your vision. Original may actually be more 'accurate' or corrected??? but rework may be more what you saw, Doug? Was this early morning/sunset light or that is what you were going for? I guess maybe the priority is how sensitive we are to how 'white' the Egret should be? All of that might segue into some local adjustment PP discussion;-) but I don't thik that's what you asking!.
