I liked the reflection and the water textures on this one. There is one plume that dips into the water at an odd angle. I debated cloning it. Opinions? 20D, 500 f/4 +1.4X, 1/350, f/6.7, ISO 400. Comments are welcome.
Indeed you have some nice texture in the water, and the reflection looks good. I would definitely clone out that plume...and maybe also the two bubbles in front. Was a lower angle possible?
Can add I would like seeing more room behind the bird !!! btw I was also torn with the low angle but might kill the reflection !!! Sweet light on that bird !!!
Thanks for the comments, Daniel and Alfred. I was not able to achieve a lower angle for this image. Also, had I been able to get lower, the background would have been a tidal mud flat. :)
I'd get rid of the plume in a heartbeat. The straight vertical clashes with the circles. Beautiful reflection, even better than the real bird :)
Agree on more room at the left, because the tail of the bird is too close to the border.
Keep them coming!
Excellent reflection image Steve - beautiful light and textures on the water and an almost perfect reflection with a lot of detail. The others have covered the recommendations. Other than those minor things, great image.
