My family and I like to make evening trips to Greenbelt Park close to home. The park is in the middle of town yet wildlife is abundant. This evening I was able to capture this little guy doing some fishing in the small creek running through the park. Reflections of the sky in the water and a bird that seemed to care less about a photographer helped. As I looked through my lens I was looking at background as well as the bird. I moved around until I could see nice colors reflecting back at me from the water. Then composing the image so the bird would have more space in front helps the flow of the image. By having the extra room in front of the bird helps your mind to imagine the bird will be moving forward. A repeated space of the bird, the bird and his reflection, gives a peaceful balance to the composition.
