Hello David, a cooperative mallard! I would suggest more room around the duck if you have it maybe a pano, also, another round of sharpening as it appears soft, most noticeable the head. I realize you were shootin at 6400 but I'd like to see an increase in exposure, maybe get some detail in the back end feathers. Also, when I look at the water FG and BG there is something going on there as I see some bleeding through of other colors, ex: light blue lower bottom left and especially to the right of the head... Catchlight is prominent, natural? TFS.

Love photographing the mallards. This is a solid frame. Like the ripples in the water and the pose.

Image design, the circular ripples, and SH all good. IQ looks like high ISO and the colors are a bit muddy ...
with love, artie
