Great golden pond, but the head should be more visible.

Very good photo. I just love the reflections. The water is mesmerising. I can hear it saying to me: "This is a 10 picture....this is a 10 picture...." 10....

If you are close enough a fill flash on the duck would make this a stonger image. You may need to stop down the flash some in order to fill, and not overpower the shot. 7 -danny

Beautifully captured! 10

That water looks absolutedly wonderful. I just wish you'd tried for a more side-on view of the bird so one could see it's head better.

The water looks fantastic but the detail is lost on the bird.

Golden it is. Beautiful reflection of the sun's color.

Really cool...9

Excellent water capture. Fits the title.

Like the effects of the water was a good movie also 8

I like those goden reflection in the water - lovely organic shapes. The bird is almost in silouette, so it's hard to recognize as a bird in the position it is in...ideally (when are conditions ever ideal?) I's like to see the neck and head of the bird stretched out.

This is a really nice shot. I love the golden reflections off the water

The longer I watch - the better it looks
11/13/2003 01:47:16 PM
Beautiful

Good. Perfect color on the water. I got the title from the picture. The only thing that might have helped would be the duck seen from the side instead of the front. But they never cooperate, do they?
11/13/2003 05:30:48 AM
Very beatiful picture... Beatiful colour... and good use of ligh... Fantastic shot, so 9

Great water surface texture - perhaps a lttle more light on the bird? Pleasing composition.
11/12/2003 07:05:33 PM
Nice reflections in the water. Your subject is a little too dark though. I guess it's a duck?
11/12/2003 06:27:48 PM
Nice. A profile of the duck might have looked better in sillouette, though I do like the reflection.
11/12/2003 02:03:33 PM
pretty. a side view of the duck would have improved it, instead of a large black area we would know its a duck.
11/12/2003 10:16:03 AM
Beautiful texture in the water, although I wish there were more light on the bird, but understand that probably couldn't be helped. 7
11/12/2003 07:06:44 AM
good shot!
11/12/2003 06:38:20 AM
With the loon in profile, this would have been a fabulous shot.
11/12/2003 06:00:28 AM
Ah very fitting, the gold and blue and the water texture are awesome. I would have liked to have seen a little more detail on the bird, a little difficult in those lighting conditions I know.
11/12/2003 03:54:06 AM
Just about perfect. Nothing to add just compliments and to say bravo.
11/12/2003 02:49:27 AM
i really like the colours on water.... the bird isnt that highlighted! but really worth a 6.
11/12/2003 01:38:28 AM
stunning..
11/11/2003 10:18:43 PM
Very nice.
11/11/2003 08:43:06 PM
what a beautiful color of the water, this is a fabulous shot!
11/11/2003 08:33:24 PM
love the reflections - they add a lot of depth and interest to the picture
