Manos, well timed to capture the legs as they are - sort of forming a square below the belly. Another great silhouette against a lovely colourful BG.

Manos, great pose with bird parallel. Color is outstanding.

Beautiful photograph! The reflection on the water is fantastic. Was this a dawn or dusk photo?

Superb,
The pose and the waters color makes it for me.

Manos:

The extraordinarily long legs of the stilt allow this most unusual silhouette.
Nice colors too. I find myself wanting a sliver more room on the left, even though it is nice as is.

Cheers

Beautiful colors and great silhouette, with just a bit of water ripple.

Manos, this is a beautifully captured image. Love the background colors.

[Troy Lim]

Love the shot....calmness and pose. TFS.

[Gary Jones]

I love the angles in this, and that bit of water on the back leg - really makes the image.

[Ben_Sadd]

Very nice image. The angles formed by the legs make it very interesting. I would not mind seeing a little more room below to give the reflection some space.

I love the pose with the legs. very well done indeed
