Down by the raunt at Jamaica Bay there is a little section that is so dried up because of lack of rain a little Tidal Pool was left last week. There were a bunch of these little guys walking around and the reflections were very cool, like a mirror. It was difficult to isolate a single one, this is the closest I could get. Will give JamBay one more shot this Saturday morning before I hang up the waders....

D2x, 500mm AF-S, ISO 200, 1/1250, f6.3, iTTL flash at -1.3, Skimmer Ground Pod, Wimberley Head.

Beautiful reflection for sure! Nice pose of the bird. I like the rock and other bird in the background. Adds some "texture" for lack of a better word but for me is not distracting due to the placement.

This is superb with total reflection and exposure is right on, George! :roll:
The big boulder on the right in the bg distracts a little ...

Love the smooth water too. The flash is well done but it may look better dialed down a bit.

Excellent shot George! :) The rock is a bit dominant IMO too.

A very nice image, a little over flashed for my taste, but everything else is lovely.
