Great pose and reflection. The water looks very noisy but this should be easy to fix.

[Phil Colla]

That is a great reflection, well balanced in the frame and room in front of the bird as it strides forward. Highlights seem a little bright on my monitor. I'm guessing the water is clear and smooth in the original but I think I see jpg artifacts in the version presented.

Great posture and light not to mention the fantastic reflection!. Agree that noise could be reduced.

[Paul Zappala]

Thanks for the comments. I agree. The raw file shows minimal noise and no lost highlights..

Beautiful wing spread. Very nice image.
