Excellent! This is good. Marvelous lightening on the head, superb colors (especially on the head), great POV & DOF. Razorsharp details.

Well done on this capture. The lighting on the head shows warmth. Crisp, sharp and detailed. Excelent shot.
The reflection of the duck in the water might have been an added bonus.

Simply beautiful capture, Adrian! I've often wondered why God made the males even prettier than their ladies in nature. Doesn't seem fair to the females. Well done and TFS.

Hi Adrian
The thing that strikes me first is the under-handed way in which he is laying the eye on you, and then the lovely punk hairdo. Beautiful no nits, and except for the colouration, he reminds me of Daffy Duck. TFS

Hi Adrian, super picture. I like these punky looking ducks. Glad to see that you have visited Bushy Park. Lovely details and the water looks ace. The WS is very funny, thanks for posting.
