Lucky or not, this is a very interesting photo of the flying duck followed by his reflection

Nice shot and a difficult one at that.

Great capture. Ducks, to me, normally don't look that intense...

Thanks for the comment! Can I ask what you mean by the effect? I did post-process it with many edits, but what seems off about it?

Thanks for any details you can provide!

By the effect I mean the reflection of the flying duck underneath on the water. The fact that it is an action (duck flying) reflection is also something I don't recall seeing before. I've seen and taken plenty of swimming birds with still reflections on the water...but a fast flying bird with the underside of the duck flying...and that action....reflected on the water...is new to me.

Nothing is 'off' about it, in my view. I like it.
