astonishing clarity. the part I like most: you can still see the bird's feet in the water.

The reflection adds still something to an excellent capture, impressive.

Great exposure with backlight to boot! Excellent crop and razor sharp. A photo to be very proud of. I love that you can still see the feet through the reflection. Just perfect. I hope it scores very well for you. A 10 in my books. Best of luck. Scott

Great reflection and a really interesting light curve over its back.
Post actions
I just realized I saw this on another site. I loved it there and it's great here too. Just wish I could remember who it was...
Post actions
This crispness of this shot is great!
Post actions
What can I say, this is awesome !
Post actions
Astonishing capture -- first to get the positioning, second to have the water still enough for a perfect reflection, third to have the perfect crispness of feather detail and amazing highlights. My only chance of producing an image like this would be to use a stuffed bird.
Post actions
Love the detail on this little guy, you can even see the details in some of the white feathers. Also love the reflection in the water, nice and clear!
Post actions
