Some Reflections and a Couple Of Others

I love working a wading bird or duck for the right reflection ... usually that means a little higher angle of perspective than some folks like with bird photography, but the reflections make up for it IMHO

The reflections do make the shots. You do know when to "break the rules". :thumbsup:

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.

I have to agree with you, Bob. The reflection definitely makes up for the angle.

Excellent set! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

If the water is smooth always try to include the refection. I don't know how many bird shots I framed with the reflection only as an afterthought. These are great BTW Bob... :judge: :judge: :judge:

:agree: Refections make the pic..... :judge:

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.
