Black-bellied Whistling Duck - S.W Florida

This one from this afternoon. Not too happy about it since I had to crop more than what I usually do which is very little. However, the good news is that I can go back for more!

Comments are welcome.

Canon 40D, 500mm L @ f/5.6, ISO 400, 1/800 sec, RAW, Tripod, Cropped to help composition.

Thanks!

Sweet flight capture Maxis I love the upper wing pose and eye contact.

The crop works well here. Love the flight pose, but wish the back wing were sharp instead of motion blurred. This is a personal preference however, and I think most people like the speed that blurred wings impart, And these ducks are fast! Great exposure control.

nice shot Maxis, great colours, and wing position.. maybe a little over sharpened, imo.

Very nicely captured Maxis and I love flight images that allow us to see a little of the topside. Good exposure and excellent flight pose.

I loike the pose, the light, sharpness and colors, crop works great and the blurred wings give a motion feel that I like a lot! Congratulations!
