CommentThis image was taken late in the afternoon at a very muddy waterhole. I did not realize until I reviewed the images that I had taken, that a muddy waterhole would produce such a clear reflection. I chose this image as the reflection is so clear that it even replicated the catchlight in the Bluebonnet's eye.

1/800sec @ f/7.1 ISO1000 focal length 400mm . Tripod. Processed in Lightroom Classic .Topaz DeNoise Ai was used to reduce noise and the image was transferred to Photoshop to downsize and final sharpening before saving.
