Exactly the kind of reflection I dream of ;^) Very nice image Sharon, I love the angle you caught the subject in, giving it such a wonderful expression, and the composition is perfect :^)

Love the floating reflection, Sharon. Well handled exposures and a super composition add up to a great image.

Sharon,
I could tell from the thumbnail I was going to love the water in this image and I do! The calm water is beautiful as is the reflection. I like the pose of the duck and how there is just enough of a head turn to show both eyes. I also think you did very well to show the "ring" of the neck as that can be difficult to capture. The duck in the larger version looks a tiny bit soft compared to the 720 pixel version.

I agree - neat reflection Sharon. I like your composition and you did quite well with a tough exposure.
