Nice image, beautiful reflection.

[Bill Dix]

Sweet. Exquisite reflection and bg color. A slight head turn would have put it over the top.

[Ross Taylor]

Amazing reflection and colors. At first I though the bird was small in the frame, but cropping more would sacrifice those greens and blues. Thanks for sharing this Tomasz!

Gorgeous colors and reflection. Agree that the head angle isn't ideal but the reflection makes up for it.

TFS,

Hello Tomasz:)

Welcome to BPN!

This is the first image I see from you, I must say the colours are beautiful and there's something so tranquil about this scene, the composition so pleasing to the eye.

Good exposure, very well framed and nice PP work too, don't mind the HA that much... I am so taken with that reflection:)

Superb capture, what a pleasure to view, many thanks for sharing

Kind regards,

[stuart wanuck]

all about the bg nice

[William Dickson]

Beautiful looking frame. Love the reflection and wow, what a great looking BG. Wished it had been looking in our direction, but very nice as is. Good work, well done.

Hi Tomasz

This image for me is all about mood- tranquility, peaceful and serene.
The mood is slightly interrupted with the blues around his legs where he breaks the water- very relevant!
Love the comp and transition of colours..
Well done!

[Giovanni Frescura]

Very very nice shoot ..right composition and reflection..The color is perfect forr this image!
Well done

[Mike Poole]

Beautiful shot, For me, the slightly turned away head actually works well in this shot, as part of the overall tranquil scene. The looking into the distance just works. The only slight change I'd consider would be to have a touch more headroom and sacrifice a little at the bottom to compensate, but it is a fantastic shot.

Hi Tomasz, I like the relaxed pose, and of course, the wonderful colours of the water takes this image over the top. The clean reflection is a real added bonus too.

Big, warm welcome to BPN! This is one heck of an image to start off with and what a special image it is. Love the light, the colors and the reflection. The water is just seamless. The head angle doesn't bother me one bit here. I think this is an exceptional image!

[Raybel Robles]

Beautiful image with lovely colors. The head trun have been mention but is not a big deal... such beautiful colors make up for it!

[Gerhard Weldhagen]

Well done!

[Daniel Cadieux]

I agree this is a very nice image!! Great colours and quite a tranquil feel to the mood. I guess we're of two minds about the head angle...I'm on the "more towards us" camp. There are just a couple of black speck in the water that you could remove if you are into that type of alteration.

[Tomasz Zawadzki]

Thanks to all of you. I am glad you like it.
