 Was hoping to salvage this shot.

Lovely shot.  I think I would have crop a little more but that's just me.

gjtoth:  Thanks for the critique. I'll play with it some more, but I fear I'm not very adept with the editing either.  :)

That is beautiful. 

I do agree with Gary I would crop it a bit farther.  Perhaps if asked Gary could help you with that?

Pretty. If it were in one of the rule of thirds spots it would make a nice greeting card. Was it shot through some cat tails?

Nicely done, but I'd crop it a bit more AND move the best part off center, too.

 Thanks guys. I haven't taken the time to work further on it as yet, but I like your thoughts. Hopefully some time will present itself this weekend.
