The repost is so much better Kevin! Well done and colors look true to my eye.

This is nice,, they are pretty fun to watch at this age. Water, light and exposure looks great. It could be sharper in web presentation, I bet the...

Great image and I think the color in the water really makes this pop. Preening showing some action helps too. TFS

Your right Will it does have a blue color cast. Other edits I seem to get a orange cast just couldn't rid the color cast .

I agree Ann it just seems no matter what I did had trouble with a color cast.

Thanks Gail I agree it was a dirty background and it seems no matter what I tried always had a color cast. I had this smoky haze that morning and...

This is another edit I did but it has more oranges in it and still some blue cast. Tried several methods to rid the color cast. Seems like I do it...

Hi Kevin, I think the comments above would be helpful if you choose to look at the blueish cast and add more "color", it looks flat to me. Usually...

Hi Will, this guy is so fast and what a wonderful capture, I too like the position of the duck parallel to the horizon line. EXP is wonderful, sharp...

Hi Mike, yahoo for you, welcome to the R5 club! Looks terrific, agree with the DOF, difficult with this position. Colors look wonderful and so...

Wow, nitpick is you don't have more in front because you nailed him at this range....Excellent!! I like the BG split and the duck right on it,...

Mike, congrats on the R5!! Envy is running high here man. Would love to capture a Mandi as you did here. So ISO 3200 is higher than I've felt...

Looking good Frank....yes to slightly more exposure but what a great flight pose you captured....The bird looks so good against that lovely BG... ...

Looking good here Kevin....yes, the feet could have been sharper, but I think you got some great detail on the bird. Nice pose, POV and HA. I like...

Congrats, always rewarding to get these.... exposure and color look right on. If anything the white patch is pretty muted.. it is full on duck glow...

A terrific Coot shot but their feet are great, I wish they were not mud covered. I am sure you can get one of those..

Nice one Joe...I like the feel of the image...As Gail said, pinks and greys look great together. Lovely pose, HA, dangling feet...Looks good...I...

Lovely 'natural' look about this image...Yes to a wee bit more contrast, but I do love the pose and the perch...I don't mind not seeing the...

Looking good for a test shot Mike...A good duck to test the camera....lovely colours throughout....I like the pose you captured..I'm with Gail re the...

Thank you both for the suggestions. I took your advise and lightened the image a bit (1/3 stop at 80% opacity) while protecting the right thigh as...

This is great! Love the top view and the nice BG. Would be happy to have this one in my files! gail

Another beauty. Perfect Bg and wing position. I would like to see this at -1/3 exposure. Otherwise, no nits from me! gail

Great water texture and reflection. Repost looks good. I would clone out the spots in the water in front of the duck. He is a "hard looking" dude!...
