Shoreline reflections on the water made this a better than usual loon image for me.

This definitely has a tranquil mood to it, and looks good in the larger version.

A kaleidoscope of colours in this! I like the eye contact. I would be tempted to darken the top left a bit.

Very cool water and a great pose, Bob. A slightly lower angle might have done some interesting things to this image, but I like it as posted. :toast:
