Beautiful image! Nice job.

Plenty to come back to and enjoy. I especially like the segmenting of the image into sky, horizon, water, water with reflections. And the three ducks in the suns defined reflection.

Interesting crop which I think works here. I think it also works with two thirds of the distance to the lowest bird cropped off. I just cant decide about the soft, hazy relections along the bottom..

Wish I took it!

Very nice - i also like the foreground (reflection) leading to mid (geese) leading to background sunset. Nice colors and capture of the sun too.

This is a tough lighting shot because you needed to keep the birds clear but needed to not underexpose which caused you to make the right compromises (grain and modest softness for great overall impact).

Good job - please provide the exif for reference - my guess is shutter at >1/100 and ISO 800 f11 underexposed and then adjusted for lighting? Tripod? lens?

Good job.

Awesome shot!! Perhaps tighten the bottom a bit so the birds are closer to the bottom of the frame.
