Hello Gustavo
Welcome to TrekNature!
You've captured a interesting species of duck here. He has a beautiful colour pattern. The only thing see wrong is that you can't see his eye as his head came out very dark.

Welcome to TrekNature, Gustavo !

Lovely bird the Shelduck, I just recently saw my first one at a reserve here in England. Nice composition. Exposure could be a bit better, as Janice says, the head is too dark for any detail. TFS, looking forward to seeing more of your work, Mish

Hi Gustavo,
I've never seen such a duck, beautiful colours and a nice pose, thanks and greetings
