    Frank,
    Marvelous image.Excellent composition.Beautiful lights.Superb pose with open mouth and nice HA.
    Love the colors and great details.I like the nice BG too.Above all reflection is wonderful.
    Do you have the space on the top and bottom? I would love to see vertical composition,if you don't mine..It will be great IMHO.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    What a gorgeous photo. Personally, I prefer the full frame version, but both are nice.

    Marvelous water, and I like the yawning pose. Reflection looks great. I agree a bit tight top and bottom (especially top)

    Hi Frank, good sharp detail throughout the Grebe, and well timed to capture the yawn. Good show of the tongue, and I like the texture of the water. Great clear reflection too. If anything, I would maybe just add a touch to the top.

    I love the relative stillness of the water in the foreground, giving that amazing reflection. The yawn, the light and the BG are
    just amazing..... Great Stuff. Waiting to see the images from your new lens......

    Very nice. Another vote for adding a bit of canvas up top if that isn't against your ethics.
    I like the color and silkiness of the water.
    Excellent IQ as well and I think I like the OP best but do like the vertical as well,
