Love the light in the second image. There is a nice crop in there if you so desire!

Thanks very much! It's already cropped, but I'd love to see your interpretation! Below is closer to the original aspect.

Both are outstanding photos and your post processing is sublime and subtle.

Actually once I started playing with it, I guess I came up with something similar to your, but more a landscape crop and attempted to surround the bird with a bit more of the Lillys. Topaz deNoise seemed to sharpen up the head of the bird a bit, which I like, and a very slight NIK Color effects pro custom setup I use enhanced the sky reflection. Either way, the more I look at it, the more I appreciate it as a great image. Thanks for the opportunity!

Thank you so much! I'll have to see if I masked the Topaz Simplify from the bird's head. I probably did but just didn't notice it could have been sharper, while still retaining the softness of the water and lily pads. I also like the aspect you chose. Your edit is really, really nice!
