CommentI like this capture because it took some effort to get a decent mirror shot when a flock of Sharp-tailed Sandpipers landed in shallow water near me. This was the only moment when the whole bird was reflected with only a minor distortion. The bright early morning sun and the blue skies enhanced the visual effect.
