    Nice simple image. I like the placement and the reflection.

    I agree with Dan that this is a nice simple image. Nice smooth water with a pleasing reflection. The exposure looks good as I see details in the whites and dark. A bit different composition with the bird swiming out of the frame but I am OK with it with the wake included. I would prefer if the bird were swming more towards us than slightly away. Thanks for sharing!

    A very simple composition but it works for me. I would crop a litle bit around the bird because it seems very small in the composition, and I would consider to increase the saturation of the image, just a bit.

    Clean and sharp with good exposure, Nicolas. The reflection is a plus. I would wish for a slight head turn towards the camera. I would also suggest cropping from the bottom for a pano comp.
