Thank you to all those who took the time and effort to comment. To be honest I was in 2 minds about posting this one. It needed a couple of geese and a gull cloning out of the background. I thought the central image was strong enough to warrant the effort. Luck was with me to capture this split second pose, just a case of being half prepared for these random events.

Attached is the full frame version. Cloning is not my forte and yes Nigel and Bill with hindsight I could of included a bit more reflection. Maybe I'll give another go when I have some free time.
