This was mainly taken as an ID shot but I like how it turned out. Shot from about 10 feet away.

Nice composition and colors. I love how the water looks--like silk. I like to crop tight, so I would take a bit off the top and right side, but it is nice as it is.

Ken, I've never seen a photograph of this df before...lovely! Because both ends of the perch are OOF I'd crop from both ends and leave that beautiful water and df to star in the show.

[Roman Kurywczak]

Hey Ken,
Yeah.....you were maxed out but I have to agree that the DF needs to be the star.....and too much of the OOF branch detracts. Even the tail looks like it is going soft....probably angled away from you. Hope you get more shats at this one!

[Bob Miller]

HI Ken...I like this image and would crop as suggested to get rid of oof elements!

[Mike Moats]

Hey Ken, agree on the crop off the top. Like the line of the stem and the Damsel looks great.
