Beautiful bird... like the head on view, color of the water and background. Thank you for sharing, Dan.

Great colours and low angle. I love the water texture in the foreground. I'm not crazy about the reflected eye touching the bottom edge - you could crop more to hide it fully, or add back canvas (if you have it) to give some space.
Sharp and so colorful! I would be tempted to crop the start of the neck whites off the bottom... a beauty!
Quite a beauty Dan but not sure how you managed to get as low as you did without going swimming! The water in this one is excellent. Colours are remarkable especially the iridescence around the eye area and crown. I see what Dan is saying about the reflection although it didn't bother me until I read his comments!
