    Nice reflection and good exposure. I like the smoothness of the water. I presume that the dark spots on the bill are from it's feeding activity. Nice head angle and eye contact.

    Nice light with a good exposure, i like the pose of the bird and the reflection is nice as well.

    Nice and simple. Very nice reflection, made better by not going too low. If mine I'd remove the black specks on the bill, but this is certainly a beautiful image!
