bonjour John

le cadrage est un peu trop sérré à mon gout
(j'aurais préféré voir un plus d'eau des deux côtés du canard)
mais quelle belle photo, superbe piqué, belles couleurs chaudes
du canard et beaux détails de son plumage, j'aime aussi
l'action du nettoyage des plumes de ce canard

J'aimes Beaucoup Ta Photo

I agree - a beutiful image of the Mallard.
Very nice lighting and clarity as well as the pose.
How much did you have to pay her? haha.
Well done John.

Wow John, what a superb sharpness and awsome saturated colors and details in the feathers.
Light and pose of the bird are most wonderful.
A real joy to look at.
Thanks for sharing.
Have a nice Sunday,
Harry

Hi John
Great picture! How did you get the mallard to point the wing bar with the bill? Thats is a just perfect posture!

Hi John,
Beautifully sharp picture of this Mallard Duck. IMO it is too tightly cropped and a little dark.
Well taken,
Regards,
Peter

Nice image John!

Nice catch light in the eye!
Composition, sweet.

Cheers!
Elton
