I know these are common as dirt but the tilt of the head pleases me.

A nice look at this Canada Goose. The shadows/highlights are well handled, with excellent detail. If you choose, I would lose the blade of grass. Also, there seems to be about a two degree CW tilt.

I thought about both of those, Phil. The blade I left in just because I thought it might be a bit of depth indication and the tilt I'm not convinced. The ripples are directional from the wind. You might be right, but...

Now that I look at it with the tree limbs reflection I think you are right about tilt.

A nice peaceful picture Charlie. Well exposed and good detail.

Nice, sharp image Charlie, I agree on a bit of ccw rotation
