Great capture. Poised and ready to strike. Nice colors and wonderful reflected image.

Nice shot. You dealt quite well with the available light.

"I've looked at that bird from both sides now,
From up an down,
And still somehow, the bird's illusion..."
Or is it reflection?
Which image is the true bird?

Thanks Angky! That passage is familiar but I can't recall where it is from.

Terrific timing Todd. I can picture the quick as lightening strike that followed.

Joni Mitchell circa 1969, from the album "Clouds".

Thanks Angky! That passage is familiar but I can't recall where it is from.

That passage came from the song, "Both Sides Now", as sung by Judy Collins way back in 1968 (or when was it?).
I messed up a couple of the lyrics to fit the image. It was a good image.
