Photographic art at it's best. An OH WOW has been born instantly.

Willie, see that white fluff on the reflection on the water by the bird's tail. Clone that out, you don't need it at all.

From colour palette of natural hues to compositional and esthetic beauty to cropping to technical strength to splendid POV this image is a stand out.

I bow to you for this award winning shot. You need to submit this to an Avian International Competition.

Excellence at it's best.

I really like the contrast of this shot! The reflection really draws me to the overall shot... The fore and background have just the right depth of field and the shot looks well framed.

And I reckon he's just about to get it. Excellent shot, perfectly framed and a very good point of view.. Beautiful reflection and great point of view. Brilliant work. Full marks.

Very nice bird. Very clear and close up. I love the reflection in the water, very clear and the water has a nice, glassy look. Good luck in the contest!

A good reflection for this long legged big bird. Good rule of thirds frame, focused and with a nice bright exposure. Job well done.
