Kathryn from Warburton, Australia

excellent moment!!! also the grass in the background is fabulous! how do you think a crop-out of the bottom grass would work - leaving a long horizontal frame of the birds, reflection and top grass?!? just a thought...

@Kathryn: Ya know...I think you've got something there! I'll try it out, thanks for the feedback:-)
