    WOW! Beautiful picture, colors and lighting are excellent, and love the reflection.
    I only wish for a better head angle.

    Other than the angle of the head, this is so serene. Your image portrays such peace and tranquility. Beautiful Haim.

    The light and the reflection are so, so sweet that I am fine with the head angle. On rare occasions, like this, it is fine to show the bird headed that-a-way. Hard to put it into words, but there is a good chance that I would prefer this to the same image with a look-back head angle...

    I love the light and the smooth water surface acting like a mirror. Not much to add other then print and hang it on the wall :)
