 Taken of a Great Blue Heron on our Pond. Was hoping for a reflection but our pond had turned so it was all murky but thought the water still turned out cool being overexposed.

I do like the picture and the interesting effect your exposure has on the (murky) water - certainly the heron perfectly exposed, and standing quite comfortably against it.

Stunning detail on the bird. However I just dont see this image fitting the challenge well. The small area tat is overexposed seems just incidental.

This is a really nice photos - I really like it just didn't fit the overexposure as much as others did.
