This was taken at sunrise. I like the fact that the reflection is somewhat impressionistic. I'm sure the voters will knock it down, since it isn't crytal clear.

Oh nooo. . . you are right! The impressionistic reflection is AWESOME! I can't tell you how many times I have tried to get one of these beautiful shots of these gorgeous birds in flight -- but I never seem to be able to get my camera in the right place at the right moment! This is awesome!

the actual birds steal the show from the reflection, imo! like the colors in this pic.

Tighter crop from top would help, I think... nice colors!

Nice idea with the panning but it´s not pronounced enough for my taste, I would have either liked this to be completely frozen or panned more, it´s somewhere in between as it is. Anyway, fitting for the challenge and I like the colours so I gave this a 6.

Great bird picture, really superb, but reflection neither adds or detracts from the qualitiy.

8 - Very nice colors. Criticism; wish the focus were more on the reflection here even though the geese(?) make a wonderful sight, for the Challenge, (and with calmer waters), their reflections would have been 'special'. Difficult shot I imagine trying to incorporate 'all', while still getting those 'flying geese'.

A HONKING shot... the reflection isn't as impressive as the capture of the Honkers, yet it's a GREAT photo ! Well Done!
