Hi birders!
Well, I assume it was a swan, that's what my wife said. I love this shot. I got it at Hallstatt Lake in Austria a couple of months ago. What I like best about the shot is how the wingtips are just touching their reflections.
Right now, I am NOT on my calibrated monitor - so color, contrast, and levels will be taken care of later. At this point I am just after general feedback. (Vingette was NOT added)
Particularly, which crop is most effective - I am leaning away from the full open view, but I see merits and demerits to all three visions.
Also, I have been racking my brain for a title - Nothing seems to be coming to mind. The only thing that came up was a song title, "Reflections of My Life"
Shot with a 5d Mk II
Canon 28 - 135 at 135mm
f 5.6
1/1250
Critique, Comments and especially title recommendations very welcome.

And my first - horrizonal - crop:
As well as a vertical crop (which works out to be about a 50% crop):
