This is fantastic, almost magical! Tack sharp details. Gorgeous colors, absolutely perfect image of this wonderful bird! And that reflection does look like a mirror with the water being so placid. One of my new favorites! Congratulations!!

This is a very good image. I like how you can see the bird's reflection in the water and the color of the water. Your focus is good as well. You did a wonderful job on this one :)

Loll reminding me Sange she got a similar in brown today Loll - fantastic in mirror effect , the stunning part is the sharpness on the reflection - a very special capture, as it seems he is standing on himself and your right upper corner looks like a small wood house just created by nature colors - making this shot a magic one - super timing , great focus and exposure , the crystal clarity of this image is outstanding , luminous enhanced , great job, thanks for sharing

I like the use of reflections in the water to add an extra dimension to this image. It adds great symmetry, as well as the picture having good focus, framing and composition.
