    Another fine image, Karl. Cool mirroring on such nice flat water. Especially like the coloring of the little ones. Very nice.

    This is simply beautiful, Karl. Great light and color, with perfect reflection, wonderful subjects. I might be tempted to take a bit off the bottom; maybe not a full pano, but something approaching 1/2 the space from bottom to reflected head. This would also take off a few dust spots in that area. (There are also a few more you could remove, incl. URC.)

    Lovely image Karl, made more so by the two chicks riding on the mother's back. I am seeing a few sensor spots or dust spots in the background. There is a couple below and a few above the birds.
