Hi Dave

I have been shooting these for the past few days on my local lake (I can feel a post coming on) and although I had good light I did not have calm water which has given your image a lovely silky feel to it!

I agree with david the water is really good in this shot and the pose as well.

Hi Dave
an absolutely cracking shot. I showed it to my wife who identified it immediately as a female and did not take any offence at your comments.
