I wish the shadow of the head was complete.

Beautiful shot. I always find it a little tricky to connect with an animal shot where you can't see the eyes, especially in what is effectively just a portrait. Like the visibility of the legs under water. A sight point: you've either cropped out or not quite framed-in all the reflection, but that really is only a slight crit.

Cropping a little less on the bottom (to get the complete reflection) and less on the left (to give the goose somewhere to go) would give this image more impact. As far as exposure goes it seems to be slightly overexposed.

Just two little things.. His head it cropped too tightly and his eye...we need to see the eye. They are small little things....minor on the scale. This is a good shot. Detail of the feathers, reflection, colors,....all super nice.

Should have included all of the reflection, but still excellent. Great title, describing the animal also. Amazing, you can even see the feet because the water is so calm. 8!

Since the bird is the picture, i would have liked to be able to detect his eye more. Not sufficient light on his head, which also makes the white area near his head turn too grey. Also, would have cropped more off the top and given a bit more space at the bottom. His reflections barely makes it or barely does not. It feels a little cramped there. 6 Journey
