    very pleasant colors in the frame. POV & comp are excellent. Light & IQ are awesome too.

    Excellent details and lovely light, water and BG on this one. Not sure I would have chosen this comp.

    Hi Mike, lovely angled pose in soft light, and I do like how the FG water blends neatly into the BG water. As the reflection is not that strong, I would come up from the bottom.

    Pose, colours, and light look great! So do the details, and the techs are the usual top notch. I would have flipped the camera for a vertical here as I find the comp cramped top and bottom. A dust bunny located near the rump could go...

    Nice image Mike, i love the light here
    details look nice, i may look at cleaning the water a bit to give the water a plain look in front of the bird.
    the composition works with me
