Hello AndreA,
a good shot of this tufted duck, with a nice reflection. The contrast between the white is a difficult part. The dark parts are well exposed, but in my humble opinion the white part is too bright. In photoshop the magic wand and 'highlights' can fix that problem.
Keep on going in 2007,
cheers Jacob

Hello Andrea,
A species I have not seen, Very well composed and considering that black and white creatures are so hard to capture the details are very good. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Andrea,
A very nice shot on the Tufted Duck. You managed the light and exposure well to get such good colors and detail in both the Black and White plumage. You also caught the nice reflection. The Yellow eye really adds so much to the beauthy of this speicies.
Happy New Year,
Scott

Andrea, there seems to be some noise on the bg, but this is a very nice capture.

Great sharpness, wonderful eye and reflection.

Hello Andrea

A lovely shot of this tufted duck.Beautiful reflection in the water.Very good POV and DOF.The details are good and the black and white plumage show well.Well done.TFS

Rob

All the best to you in New Year my friend:)
Great DOF and sparkling sharpness, beautiful colours in this well framed image!
Take care Ana:)

Molto dettagliata come foto. Anche i colori sono molto naturali come piace a me.

Come va questa macchina "mostruosa" che hai? Quante foto non ti vengono esattamente a fuoco? (io in non buone condizioni di luce e contrasti ne scarto dal 70 al 90 %).

TFS, ciao, Emanuele
