Description

2nd Hot20 image in 2 weeks! Thanks for your votes! 8o] A calm lake, an outcropping of bricks and a Great egret poised to catch a fish. It is said a lifetime can be lived within a moment... Olympus C8080 & PhotoshopCS ----- "The ideal life is in our blood and never will be still. Sad will be the day for any man when he becomes contented with the thoughts he is thinking and the deeds he is doing - where there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger; which he knows he was meant and made to do." - Phillip Brooks

No comment for "improving this image" since no improvement is needed. That green with red with white against light grey - superb !!! Good you avoided the "normal" reaction to put main subject in image center. A bulls-eye shot, it is !

Agree with previous comments that this captures the essence of zen in it's beauty, elegance & simplicity. Ironic that the quote you chose seems to be somewhat opposed to the acceptance of existence that characterizes zen, but then zen embraces even such paradoxes...
