Narcissus

Considering the white background, trying to keep it from overexposing, in my opinion rendered the body too dark, which keeps me from seeing the detail of the feathers. Hope it wasn't too cold.

Any constructive critique and ratings are greatly appreciated.

Perhaps the previous comment is correct; another half stop would have rendered a tiny bit more detail. That said, I still find the image very engaging. It truly looks as if he's checking his reflection. Nice work!

Nice work, Vlad.

... you made me smile... love the composition and the humor in the caption.

congratulations!

What an unusual and interesting shot!

great effect, totally believable, and I swear that goose has an ego.

wonderful foto

the title made me smile ;-))) lovely and good shot!

Very good Vlad!

Very Nice. Perfect title.

Very nice and funny moment captured. The bird seemed to start loosing the balance as it approached the edge trying to see the reflection ;-)) What happened next?

Fellow photonetters, thanks very much for your nice posts.

 

Nickolay, I hope you satisfied with Eric's remarks about Canadian stability on ice, he definitely knows better. As for what happened than...you'll, probably see later, because I made few more shots and work on some of them in hope to upload soon.
