Another shot from my garden pond, a slightly different view this time, I quite liked the ripples generated as she laid the eggs.

Jon...Wow I am amazed by your image! Love the sharpness and the feeling of closeness. You might consider taking some off the bottom perch !

[Steve Maxson]

Another beautiful behavior shot with excellent sharpness! The ripples in the water add a nice touch, too. All the specular highlights along the bottom of the frame are drawing my eye - you might consider cloning some of those - or not. :S3: I like the crop, as presented. The water visible at the bottom helps to show that the log is floating in the pond. Very well done!
