This is another in a series of shots i took of this bird . I originally posted one of the shots but after looking through the series and taking some great critique on my first post, I decided this one is clearly the better image.This shot has the full reflection of the bird, head and all. What do you think?
And thanks to Paulnj for telling me the name of this interesting bird. Also Lavalamp for posting his shot of this bird as well.

you got a really goog shot, I like it. I would not change anything, framing, color, light are good. Nice job.

I can't offer any advice/real critique. I think this is such an interesting composition. I like it just the way it is.

Thank You for your time to comment. Positive feedback is always welcome as it lets me know others feel I have done something that not just I alone like. I had been concerned that there seems to be too much "empty" space, with the water being so calm and not having much color kind of looks like blank space. I personally think it works in the composition but could have been better yet if there was something more to the water. Color or a slight ripple perhaps. But thanks again.

I can't agree more with everything you said Gary, exactly my view on this photograph too.
