Very nice shooting angle, drops, angle in frame.

Could consider cropping up a bit from the bottom to make it into a pano crop, since the reflection is fairly indistinct.

Very cute. Love the matching colours of plumage and BG and soft textures. I agree with Randy's suggestion on cropping from below.

This is a very pleasing photograph. It has a gentle look to it. The colors work well together, and the light is terrific. The angle is nice, as well as the wing flap. I would definitely consider the pano crop or, in the alternative, you may wish to try a little more on top. The water droplets really work here too!!

Beautiful colours in this and great light too. For my taste, I might adda little canvas at the top.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. Would a pano crop be the same as a vertical or portrait crop?
