Hi Deborah,
The light here is so beautiful.
I like a lot the reflections on the water, the waves around and the nice pose caught on the duck.
Congratulations and thanks for share.

Hello Deborah,
Good details in this fine fellow!
I like how the action creates ripples in the water, seems like he keeps a fine speed here...
Good colours and a well balanced composition!

Congrats on capturing this rare bird Debz!
Not only did you spot this Whistling Duck but you photographed it as well!
Great detail in the feathers and good sharpness.
Excellent composition.
DOF is a little shallow but that is the only nit.
Well done,
Joe

Hi Debz,

This is a new one for me! This Duck is gorgeous. Amazing colors, face and plummage. I love the feathers flapping in the water. And the water - beautiful swirls and wake. Great shot!

Hi Deborah.
Me too...the time has been scarce as well.
I have never seen one of these before. TFS.
The details you achieved are fantastic.
I do like the pattern of the feathers.I also like the way the lighting is from the back. Be good. See you around.

Hello Debs, it's been a long time and I am happy to see a post from you even though I have seen it only today. It is BEAUTIFUL, with rich colours and superb light. The bird too is superb, with beautiful pattern of feathers on its back. Your picture is clear, sharp and lively, thank you and take care!

Hi Debz

Yes, time is a thief and so it goes on robbing us all of that one valuable item we have so little of in store – TIME.

Anyway, let me not be guilty of killing time so on to your lovely duck. A lovely capture and it almost seems like the duck has an expression of patience on its face while waiting for you to take the photo. I like the beautiful colours of the plumage and there are some lovely sharp details as well. The wake in front of the bird also gives a good sense of movement.

Well done and TFS.
Regards
Loot
