Lesser Yellowlegs reflection.
Reflection images are always nice to get. For shorebirds you need the perfect combination of shallow water and no wind. No other debris or distractions in the water is a nice bonus, such as here. Instead of of lying down on my stomach, I stayed higher in a crouching position to give me a better view of the reflection. It is also good discipline, if the situation permits, to flip the camera to vertical at time of capture when anticipating such a composition rather than cropping from horizontal during post-processing.
