[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another picture from the archives, this one was taken when I had a visit to Gotland. I was actually standing in the sea at the time about 150 metres out. Yes very shallow otherwise I would not risk taking the camera out that far. I am not 100% sure about this flying duck so if anyone out there can help with the ID on this one that would be great.

Hello demetrio !
I cannot help you with ID, I do not know much about ducks, but I really like your picture. You have frozen the duck perfectly, with good details. Beautiful composition, and this bright blue sky makes a wonderful BG. very well done !
Valerie.

Hej Demetrio,

Bonita captura en vuelo Demetrio, con un imponente cielo azul como fondo, bellos colores y buen DOF, aunque no incluiste los valores de la imagen, coincido con Gert que la imagen es algo soft, pero la presentación es muy agradable.
Gracias y saludos... Ricardo

Beautiful capture in flight Demetrio, with a imposing blue sky as bottom, beautiful colors and good DOF, although you didn't include the values of the image, I coincide with Gert that the image is something soft, but the presentation is very pleasant.
Thank you and greetings... Ricardo

Hi demetrio,
I am happy with all pictures of flying birds because "my" swans still don't fly.

Very nice caught in the flight!

Hello Demetrio, I'm not sure I can help you with the identification but you did well with this inflight shot. Perhaps the bird is a little soft in focus but keep at it and you'll get that nailed too. The composition is good - always tricky with inflights. The exposure is ok with the exception of a little bit of OE under the wing. Nice work, well done.

lovely lighting on this one and nicely sharp. Well done

hi Demetrio!
great shoot with good sharpness
and fine composition
