The coot is a little out of focus. It was getting late, light was failing and I'd waited ages to get some foreground interest.
Comments always welcome.

Beautiful shot with great reflection. very well composed. GREAT WORK. I love it

I really like this one, the coot looks a little soft, but I love the golden pattern made by the reeds.
lovely - i particularly like the broken reeds which 'break' the lines of the others.
it is a small shame that the coot is soft, but it's not too bad as without it the picture would not be nearly as good.

Thanks for all the comments. I'm still learning a lot, so these comments are a great source of education.
I had to open the aperture right up as I didn't have my tripod and light was going fast. The reed beds were about 200 yards away as well!
The lake is on my way home and this was taken on my first reccy, so I'll be back with more.

I was going to comment on this shot this morning. But the birds were singing, the dogs were anxious to go for a walk, the sun was shining......hang about it was p***ing down. So no chance of a shot like this.
Love it, the inclusion of the coot adds to the depth and context of the image. The lighting is beautiful. The joys of shooting RAW (you listening CB). Click.
Marvellous shot. The background and reflection make it a really striking image. Well done.
