The light reflection is beautiful!!! Very sweet light!!!

Some fill flash would have helped you here and would not have altered the nice mood on the image

I like this image much better than the previous

Something about clean bg!!!!

Nice water and light reflection, also nice composition with the diagonal subject. Fill flash would certainly have helped throw a bit more detail into the Gator, because unfortunately it is neither quite silhouette or detailed image in this shot and for that reason doesn't quite work for me.

I too am for more detail in the gator. I love the look of the water but the gator looks too dark.

Nice reflected light in the water. I know I would be tempted to lean on the sat button to accentuate that. A little murky in the face of the gator but the other way to look at it is that it adds to the overall moody feeling of the image..
