Shows my point about reflections . You have to leave it all in really which dictates your cropping options somewhat.

You are right, John. Either leave a reflection all in, or cut it all out. The only exception in my opinion is when you can see that ripples mean that it is incomplete anyway. Nice shot of the chiffchaff by the way.

Reflection or not it's still a nice shot.

Nice! Saw one for the first time the other day near home (actually identified by the call by a friend who knows these things). Interesting about the reflection - on my low shots, it is so long it is impossible to get it all in.

Lovely shot from you John as per usual

a lovely shot John, I think it works very nicely with the full reflection even if it does mean you have to compose the shot a bit unconventially.

Very nice indeed John. The reflection looks good but still would be a fine looking image without.

On reflection I think this is a fine image.

Very nice indeed.
