This shot is much better. You leave some negative space for us. I'm trying to decide whether you burned the black areas or whether they are dark in the original. It looks somewhat artificial, probably because the bird is so bright along with the reflection of the circles in the water. Again, I think you need to up your shutter speed just a bit. 1/500 would have been much better as I sense just a tad of either motion blur or camera blur.

Nice curves, reflection, and exposure. Could perhaps be rotated a degree or so anticlockwise.
