Great contest entry and your image is fitting for the title. The variations of colors and tones in the water are striking. Especially like the light and dark shadows. The silhouette of the bird and reflection in the water give a mysterious look. Nice presentation

This is a very special picture due to the multiple colors of the sunrise - and the bird is just one more dark spot as a silhouette in the colorful scene - handsome tone and shades let this photograph look like an abstract painting just taking basic colors mixing them to different shades - perfect camera setting - good focus - still considering this for a night photograph it is handsome in luminosity and clarity - very nice reflection with soft ripples - great contras - well done

Very nice opportunity shot. Love the way the environment color blends naturally and well pleasing to the eyes. Nice detail clear and sharp yet with a soft feel to spark the wonder and awe in the viewer's perspective. Nice pov and lighting and colors really catches the eye. Thank you for sharing. ~ Dennis

Sweet!! Love the background colors. Looks so quiet and still. He's waiting for his breakfast to surface. Wonderful shot. Good focus and vibrant colors.

I like the light reflecting in the water and dancing for the eyes. The silhouette of the bird is a nice job. Great work

Nicely done, Willie! Great silhouette and framing of the reflection, as well. Love the colors and wonderin how long will it be, before I see the same sort of view.

This is amazing! The silhouette is very beautifully done. The colours are breathtaking and either suggest sunrise or sunset, look at that shadowed reflection. This is just grand ! Wish i had a 6 for you!
