Guy,
great light, colors, detail, pose. The background is super. On my monitor the legs and the yellow portion of the beak seem a bit bright. Beatiful image indeed.

Guy, I agree with Monica -very nice! If it were mine I would play with the crop. I do not know what if anything you may have wanted to crop out.

Wondeful colours in the setting, and I like the pose and wavelet reflections on plumage.

Beautiful colors in the water, Guy, and the detail in the Moorhen is great. I would be tempted to crop this to about a 4X5 ratio and remove a bit from the bottom while keeping the reflection, but that is a personal preference. This is awesome as posted.

Lovely light. I am partial to moorhens. Low perspective is great and you still got the reflection.

Gorgeous light. Love the low angle. I think I would crop a bit off the bottom.

Love the light and pose of the bird Guy. How would a more horivontal crop (but still keeping the reflection) go?? Might place a little more focus on whatever it's aiming at.
cheers

Great low angle, beautiful light and appealing pose. I'd be tempted to crop some from the bottom, if the reflection went all the way to the bottom of the frame I would leave it, in this case I'd crop the bottom to just below the edge of the refelction.

Wonderful light to show the dark moorhen and I do like Mia's suggestion about the crop, excellent shot, well done.
