Here are a few from one morning last week. The water was still, making for some very nice reflections of the foothills to the west.

As usual, C&C are welcome and encouraged.

I love the abstract nature of 5. You might want to try composing reflections with the center of the reflection and real view in the middle of the frame

Beautiful work Kevin, these really are marvelous What a beautiful setting to shoot in and you sure made the best of it. For another opinion.. I'm not a big fan of centered reflections, I like these composed as is To each his own!

Thanks for the kind words, Tim. My intention in many of these shots was to include more of the environment (foothills, water features), which hopefully came through.

Thanks, Oscar. These were taken in the morning, with the sun coming from the east and the foothills to the west.

Very nice reflection set, Kevin. It is rare to me to see the seagull get big fish.
