This is such a wonderful shot, but on my screen it's very overexposed. With more contrast, and getting the blacks where they should be, it would bring out the rich colors of the coat, and it would be a great shot.

I would think a square crop would perhaps work better here. The birds are so wonderful and such an excellent capture, but a good half of the picture is the oof stone. You need some of it to get the idea of the setting, but I think 1/3-1/2 of the stone would be more than enough.

Fantastic capture!

oh my! This is wonderful! I would really love to see what the glass ball looks like. The only nitpick I have is the blown spot on the left draws my eye. The other ones don't bother me much, perhaps because they're smaller. It's still truly wonderful, however, and very well done!

Wow! This is spectacular! If only you could have been a little more to the right so you could crop something like this: yet have only street and sidewalk in the background. The umbrella, kid and reflections are incredible, but your background is so busy.

It still made me say "wow" when I first saw it, however. Marvelous shot!

Very nice! Your camera is sure a lot cleaner than mine. These photos were all so grainy for me.

How much did you play with the exposure? My herons were muddy in these shots.

Hahah! I have that pose, as well! But my splashes looked better on the other shot. Your lighting is a lot cleaning on this, he was quite underexposed on mine. I think I'd better go back and play a little more, because this is very nice!

It's too bad they kept flying away from us :)

The muddled reflection is pretty cool!
