Limpkin - Reflections of Life Young and Old! Image taken in SW Florida on May 3, 2024 Camera: Sony Alpha + FE 400mm f/2.8 GM shot at ISO 400 f/5.6 1/2000
*Note - I was half tempted to crop the relfection out of the image. What do you think?

Personally, I like the reflection.

The reflection is fantastic, I'd leave it as it is.

What do you think?

Wonderful picture: love it!

I don't think you can loose the reflection, as you'd have to crop to the bird's legs.

The reflection is nice. If there's a problem with it then maybe it is a bit too nice! Maybe you could slightly blur and/or reduce the brightness of the foreground?
