Very nice shot. Looks like you need to clean your lens though. Those dots in the sky look to be from that.

Thanks all.

I am aware that it looks like a person, hence the title ‘Naiad’ which is a mythical water sprite. I spent most of my spare time during the week trying to capture birds and insects in flight. I finally gave up when it went dark on Sunday night and did this as a bit of a last minute job, so I am quite pleased it did as well as it has done.

Looks like a silver grammy. Nice pinkish tint in the bottom.

Very good stop action of an old subject. Might be better in a Patriotism category, or am I the only one that sees the Statue of liberty.

Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out, but that water looks like a person with his arm up, shooting out of the bowl. I think you really could have used the reflection and transparency of the water in combination with a more exciting background to make this shot better.

a little dim, otherwise the colors would've come out nicer.
