Hello Hotshot .. I mean Fastshot Zhewen!
What a beautiful image you have created with water and rocks and a bird between them!
I have no issues with the placement of the subject at the centre of the image. It is still a beautiful image with a good POV, colours and contrasts.
The mirror image is perfect.
TFS.

Bonjour,
Joli effet de miroir.
J'aurais préféré un peu moins de pierres sur le haut de la photo.

Hello Zhewen,

This is a stunning composition and perfect example of the adage "Rules are made to be broken" I love this.

I did a quick workshop to see if I could remove some of the noise in the water and sharpen the image little. I was moderately successful.

Thanks for sharing such great photo.

Evelynn : )

Hi Zhewen,
Magnificient and very artistic shot. Very much dynamism through inversed perspective, resulting in a metastable equilibrium. The plain blue, normally associated with sky lies in on the bottom part of your picture, the heavy stones giving the frame to the top (you would expect the stones to fall to the bottom !). I very much like the warm colours, the splendid mirror effect and the concentrated posture of this very interesting bird. Congratulations, very well done. Patrick
