Wow. The light reflecting off the lake tonight was gorgeous! The ducks couldn't have been better, coming in close and hanging out - hoping for a handout. It was the best evening photo session I've had in months.
Put this gal in PS and did the normal levels/curves adjustments. Added an Orton effect and lightened the opacity by about half. Did another levels adjustment and almost stopped there. At the last minute I went into filter/render/light effects and chose a spotlight placed just behind the bird to add a bit more drama.
I'd kiss this duck if I could just get close enough! :D:eek::D
