    Very nice capture Jon, I like the reflection & the raised foot. Maybe a tighter crop from top and RHS might be better......

    A very pleasant pose, with the foot up. My preference would be to crop the top halfway to the bird's head. There is a lot "happening" near the bottom, and nothing up there. I'l also maybe take a little off the right and more off the left. The bird does need room to move into but not that much, I think.

    nice leg pose. overall a solid image. we might wish for a better reflection, more dramatic or softer light, or more interesting background colors. There's nothing wrong with what is here though.

    Liking a lot the subtle color tones in this and the bird sharpness and overall light is well done. I dont see the reflection as adding much to the image and as such I would be inclined to crop it out retaining just the reflected orange legs and then crop more from top and left to balance it out
