hello friends, another one from my archives,
a photo shot almost exactly 1 year ago,
the duck it is from far but i think
it is the charm of this photo

from New Hampshire Public Television website :

http://www.nhptv.org/NatureWorks/mallard.htm

« The mallard is about 20-28 inches in length
and has a wingspan of about three feet. It has a blue
patch on the top side of its wings with a white line
around it. The male mallard has a green head and
neck with a white ring bordering it. It has a
brown chest, a whitish-gray underside, brown wings
and a yellow bill. The female mallard is mottled brown
and tan with a white tail and an orange bill. »

Merci

Asbed

Bonjour Asbed,

Les réflexions sur l'eau sont des atouts à la composition. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails et les couleurs de ce canard colvert en vol. Le flou de l'arrière-plan met en évidence le canard. Le ciel nuageux donne un bon contraste aux couleurs. Bonne journée.

Hello Asbed,
A very well-timed capture of the Mallard flying off against a beautiful background of autumn colours. Lovely colours and reflections in the water too.
TFS and regards, Ulla

bonjour Asbed
je que j'aime le plus dans cette photo, c'est la très grande netteté du colvert dans un decor flou, ce qui donne une belle profondeur de champs a cette image, j'aime aussi les arbres du BG qui commencent a avoir leurs superbes couleurs de l'automne et leurs réfléctions dans l'eau
Passe une bonne nuit

Bonjour Asbed !
J'aime beaucoup cette image, non seulement parce que tu as bien réussi à figer le canard en vol, mais aussi parce que c'est une très belle scène - le las, les reflets sur l'eau, les arbres qui commencent à afficher les couleurs de l'automne... Une belle ambiance, très sereine, très agréable. Joliment composé et, bien sûr, bravo pour avoir réussi à photographier le canard en plein vol ! Félicitations !
Valérie.
