    I too Manos but at the river you can't get much lower without disturbing the birds.

    Very nice calm water and reflection. It looks a bit dark on my monitor.

    Nice pose and the water was like glass to produce such a perfect reflection. I agree with Axel that the image is dark.

    The photo was taken in the urley morning light what makes it a little dark bud that was the way it is at the moment so I choose to keep it that way;)
    When I had the opportunity to go a little lower a indeed had to be lucky with less reflection.:D
