CommentThis image has ben submitted for 'creative' as its a 90 degree flip clockwise. The reflection was so good I tried it this way and I feel it works really well. In landscape initial impression is that its two birds. It's actually only one bird looking at itself in the mirrored water surface. I also like the horizontal leading lines from the reeds fro contrast and interest.
EquipmentOlympus OMD EM1X Olympus 300mm +MC-20 @600mm f/9 1/1250s ISO 1250 Now using DxOPure Raw for denoise and sharpen and I'm very impressed. Then process in Camera Raw and finally in PS. This workflow has been recommended by Jan Wegener and so far so good.
