Hello Everton
This is really good..the reflection is spot on as is the pov...the image is super sharp showing great details but perhaps the sharpness is a little soft around the eye..(the point everyone looks at)...
Its a great picture and a fantastic note from which Ive learnt a lot about this fabulous Hooded Merganser.
Tfs and all the best

Oi Everton,
Um belo exemplar de ganso mergulhão... parece pintado à mão!
Perfeito enquadramento (inclusive da sombra); ótima textura e visível riqueza de detalhes.
Muito bem feito!
Abraços,

Hi Everton, beautiful duck well photographed and I like the reflection and the little leaves in its trail. The light is nice and so are the colours. Thank you!

Hi Everton,
Splendid shot of this beautiful one with such lovely colour tones and sharp details on its plumage. The ripples in the water look fabulous. Great lighting and exposure. Excellent top POV and very nicely composed. Kudos.

Hola Everton.- Bella la foto de este hermoso Pato. Los colores de su plumaje son verdaderamente muy bellos. Los tonos obtenidos son exelentes gracias a la nitidez y foco. El reflejo en el agua le da valor agregado.
Saludos Luis52.

Hello Everton,
This is a fine duck with interesting looks, as it differs in beak and head shape from its cousins!
Good details in the plumage, fine diagonal composition!

Hello Everton,
What a beautiful capture of this pretty Merganser in a fine diagonal composition. Excellent sharpness, beautiful colours and I like the reflection in the water. You're lucky to have a 'birdlake' so close to you!
Well done!
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Everton,

Would you please send one of these down to Tucson? I have never seen one in the flesh and this is a beauty. Fantastic colors and details. I love the eye!! The water looks pretty cold.

Hi Everton, this is a very hansome Duck, I have not yet managed to get a shot of a Merganiser, I would love to see one. Very nice pov showing his lovely markings and profile of the head with that nice tuft on his head, great reflection also. Good light, colours, details and sharpness.
