Photographed in a small stream at the park near my house. Lots of shade, but this egret happened to be in a sunny patch. Thought black and white made a good contrast for this shot, although I wish the sun on his head wasn't quite so bright.

Some nice areas of contrast, and for me, some areas such as the water are so similar in gray values that it lessens the overall contrast of the photo....if that makes sense? :)
