    At last the sun broke through on a cool, overcast day in Central Florida to reveal a Great Blue Heron reflected in the pool below.

    Hi Kevin- Nicely done reflection! The veg. adds interest without distracting. If the original image allows it I would give a bit more room to the right and top and crop a little closer to the reflected head and to the left.

    Love the sky reflections as much or more than the bird!
    Agree with John's suggestions regarding composition and repost an improvement but maybe a bit too much taken off the bottom for my taste.

    I don't mind the idea of moving the subject left, but I much prefer with the same amount of space top and bottom when it comes to reflection images. Good exposure, and nice colours. I also like the refelcted clouds in the water. I kinda wish there was more room between the logs and heron's foot.
