Woohoo, Andrew. Congrats! Not only have you captured a fantastic image, you've given us an idea of how you can take an interesting but somewhat lackluster original and turn it into something wonderful. And now your top 5 are all over 7 - impressive! |

What a great tribute to the high ISO performance of the Nikon D3!! Fantastic Image!! Congrats!!
Would be nice to see the original, or maybe you could tell us how much NR filtering was needed

Great exposure with backlight to boot! Excellent crop and razor sharp. A photo to be very proud of. I love that you can still see the feet through the reflection. Just perfect. I hope it scores very well for you. A 10 in my books. Best of luck. Scott |

Astonishing capture -- first to get the positioning, second to have the water still enough for a perfect reflection, third to have the perfect crispness of feather detail and amazing highlights. My only chance of producing an image like this would be to use a stuffed bird. |

Love the detail on this little guy, you can even see the details in some of the white feathers. Also love the reflection in the water, nice and clear! |
