This is lovely. I like the sharpness, combined with the sense of motion.

Love the colors and the light here, feels very open and free. Wouldn't mind a somewhat smaller crop in from the left hand side. Great dof.

Great color. I wish the lighting was from the other side, but then again you wouldn't have the coloration of the vegetation that you have now.

Great looking bird, the lighting really enhances this and the yellow grass/reeds add some great colour contrast to the white bird.

Truly golden light and great timing on the capture. I might play with darkening the water a tad or maybe just desaturate the bird and increase the contrast but I would be hesitant to mess too much with such a nice image.
