Like this a lot, the backlighting really makes it, plus the hint of habitat to the right of the image... perhaps just a tad more sharpening for web presentation.

You mean the weathermen got a day right :biggrin:

I love it! You did very well to get the right amount of background reeds in - sometimes they can be very dominant but this is perfect.

Backlighting and composition work very nicely, a fine image.

Very well seen and captured, really nice light on the subject and shot overall. Nit re- sharpening mentioned but easily fixed. Great work.
