Great shots - that first one really messes with you (in a good way) with all the reflections.

Love the framing & reflections here Callie.

Very nice nice Callie

Particularly like the first one, though the bottom seems more like a Snipe. Looks a lot like Snipes in the US.

These are beautiful Callie. I really love the first photo - the framing and reflections and the nice leg lift.

Beautiful is the word.....

Very cool framing on both images!
