Cool reflection, nice colors & details Ken.
Simple & effective, like the bright red beak that stands out so well

Nice reflection and light, Ken. I like the little point of land and the sun's reflection on the water.

To echo other comments, nice reflection Ken. I also like the room your use of the negative space since he is looking in that direction.

Nice lighting here Ken, if it would take a vertical crop I might try that with this image.

Very nice image! That red bill draws the eye right in. Simple but very effective image. Sharon
