Both these are cropped from the same original. Is it better with or without the reflection?
Thanks
I think without. With the reflection, it seems too busy to me.
I prefer the pic without the reflection. There seems to be a lot going on in the first picture.
I agree with the others, the 2nd. The first seems more a picture of the pattern of the water that just happens to have caught the Osprey.

Without the reflection in my opinion. Has more impact
Without in this case. Or, perhaps, crop it tighter with the reflection.
Thanks, all. It appears to be unanimous.

My preference would be Photo No. 2. The Osprey us the subject. If possible, perhaps a little more cropping (of water) to really focus on the bird.

the second shot with the emphasis on the immature bald eagle is much better
The second one features more of the subject of the photograph. The reflection is superfluous to the action of the shot portrayed in the second version.

The second one, the close up crop.
Quite eye-catching water patterns behind your immature bald eagle. #2 for me also. Super photo!

Definitely the second, as it removed a lot of the annoying surroundings! Now you can actually somewhat see the subject! I would have the background thrown out of focus, preferably with a gradient!
