Nice job capturing the reflection. Good comp, I like the location of the grebe in the frame. Appears to be some remnants of cloning in the upper left corner. The grebe is just a little soft on the larger view. The background color was meant for this bird.

Talk about colour coordinated for the background and the Grebe .works beautifully.Would like to see just a little more of the trailing water behind the subject though .Although I realize you are trying not to centre the Grebe too much either.Very nice image

You got really lovely colors here in this image of the grebe. I like the full reflection on the still water and the wake that he has created.

I especially like the colors in this image. Reflection is great as well. Should it be a crop, I may consider widening the image a little. Otherwise a fine shot ! Cheers, Hans
