This time around it was a purple moorhen that decided to break into the reflections.

Levels, temp correction, cropping for composition..

C&C welcome. Have made a few frames with the reflections

7D, 70 200, 200 ISO, 1/200, F8

Thanks NPN for your support

That's a wonderfully colorful bird, Balan, plus the reflections, especially above it add lots of interest. I could also see cropping from the bottom to just below the two larger water drop rings.

Good title, Balan. The bird appears to be landing in an abstract tree of its own creation.

very cool reflections and the Moorhen is certainly colorful, Balan. To my eye, the harsh light on the Moorhen creates a brightness that doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the image, but that's just my taste.

Great eye to see this and wait for the optimum moment to get the image. An artistic capture. Only wish is that the shot was from a lower angle.
