Hi folks ..... just a simple clean image of this species .
I would have like to go lower , but it was not possible due to the location .
I am 50/50 on the " choppy " water ... but did want to play any tonal tricks to even things out , so I left it original .
Hope you like it

Did or did not want to ... Image is lovely -- love the framing with the whole reflection. I'd have liked a bit of nice of a head turn.
with love, artie

Artie - you found a typo .... it should be : did not want to play any tonal tricks . Thanks for the pointer . And I am with you about a slight head turn ....
Thanks folks ... for your comments and suggestions , much appreciated .
After reading your thoughts ... I can also see the subject a bit more to the right in the frame . Sadly I am somehow limited ... as this is basically full frame and I do not want to add more artificial parts on the left hand side .
