Hello Mark, and welcome! Can't be gentle sorry, got to be a Bulldozer. Top class image in my opinion, this is a cracker!

Hi Mark
Thought you wouldn't be long !

How much is your pool per hour ?
Great shot but you probably know my views on reflections and low level pool stuff !
Hope you're OK.
Cheers
John

The old Pheasant is a very good colourful subject, this is an excellent treatment of it too, a very good shot.
