The egret is looking into the frame as opposed to image 5, and although image 4 is a close second, I felt that the wider perspective might have made the egret a bit too small and placed the focus on the rainbow. Which is ok, just different. I wish image 5 had the egret looking into the frame. If so, that one would be my favorite.

Image 1 with just the single Lilly pad and vertical crop is preferred over the second image with two lily pads. The second lily doesn’t add anything other than some balance to the horizontal crop.

I prefer image 4 overall with image 5 a close second, head position be dammed!
