unpredictable weather conditions; here suddenly sun came through;hence the reflections not only in the water but also on the duck in terms of shadows...

Hello Annick,
I doubt if this is your last Mallard post on this site, but I see you took it on New Years Day.
This is a fine sharp comp with great lighting.
I also like the rings of reflection on the body, löoking like the annual rings on a tree stump: the rings of time on New Year's day?
Nice one!
TFS and best wishes, Ivan

Hallo Annick,
Dit is een prachtig plaatje, mooie compositie met de takjes aan de bovenkant. Prachtige lichtinval die zorgt voor mooie warme kleuren en een mooie reflectie in het water en op de eend.

Hello Annick. Lovely photo...I like the details; the rings on the duck of the backscattered light by the the water surface, the drops of water on his feathers, his feet under water,.. Rgrds, Marta.

Hello Annick,

He Annick, Bellissimo scatto. Sembra quasi di plastica. Colori e nitideza eccezionali. il leggero movimento dell'acqua da un toco di originalità e di naturalità.
Complimenti.
