Very nice Phil. Love the colours and light.

Great moment captured and the light is terrific, but the top pulls my eye with the reed heads and perhaps a crop below these may put more emphasis on the bird and its perch ( fish). :toast:

Great image, perfect light and having the bird catch something really makes it.

A lovely image Phil but agree with Mark re the crop. :wavey:

Great light in a nice setting - I quite like the inclusion of the reed heads and the way they catch the light!

Composition and lighting handled very well making a most attractive result, would just like a slight turn of the head. :toast:

Looks very good to me Phillip, lighting and composition work as posted imo.
