A bit of a lower POV, would be better I feel, I don't know whether a little fill in flash would lift the blocked blacks on the bird's face and neck, it might? A nice reflection!

Excellent focus on the eye and a good reflection. I like the moody feel to the image due to the saturation levels.

we always want that lower pov but I know its not always possible nice reflection

I like the reflection Bronia.

Maybe try and lift the shadow details a little in the head and neck as it looks very black in that area.

Cheers

Hi Bronia,

Maybe a lower point of view, but as alredy said that is not always possible. Perhaps try and lift the shadows a little.
