Jerry,

this is just right from framing since there is still enough room in which the bird can look to, the details and colors as you say also add a lot of interest to the image.

Hi Jerry,

Lovely image and I like the detail in the plumage. She looks nice and relaxed and you framed her perfectly for the composition.....................Jim

Fantastic plumage detail, Jerry, and that water is utterly gorgeous. I like what the reflection does to the eye.
