    Shot at sunrise at Green Cay wetlands a few months ago. The light was amazing that morning as was the bird population in the sw pond.

    Ran into Judd that morning and others who for those golden moments went wild with the photo opps.

    Good work Michael. Looks like refected light is stronger than your flash. May be little more flash would have balanced and taken those white bands on bird. Very good work.

    Overall I really like this image Michael however the reflection lines on the bird's body are really drawing my eye.

    Lovely as presented, Mike :)

    Stronger flash, to reduce the lines, will only ruin the image.

    I agree with Fabs, the lines add to the image in my opinion. Brilliant flashwork, a dream image with a dream-like quality
