Superb as usual. Excellent dark feather detail. Wings down about as good as it gets. Can't say I'm a big fan of the choppy water.

I really don't mind the choppy water.....I think it adds interest to the BG...Lovely flight pose and detail on the duck...Looks just about perfect to me....The wee reflection adds..

Yes, another Arash gem. I'm fine with the water too. I like the degree of sharpness too...some others you've posted look a tad over sharpened to me.

Details are terrific and color is right on. You held the white cheek in sun which is not easy.
I think this is also a bit contrasty like the other new A1 shot you posted, might be me . I don’t mind the water at all.
The camera is getting some mixed reviews on noise, what do you think?

Hi Dan, the contrast looks good to me at least from here, has nothing to do with camera just the time of day.

the camera noise performance is great, I will post some high ISO images. I would ignore most of the online reviews, they do not know what they are talking about.. most of them click baits.

cheers

Wouldn't expect anything less. Is the nictating membrane over the eye?
