A common Australian duck seen here in late afternoon light.

A fine image indeed Leo - sharp, excellent detail and low perspective. Also like the mirror water and reflection Perhaps a tad tight on the left?

Nice classic duck image, and good techs. You may want to tame the sheen at the base of the bill, and I would remove the detached part of the reflection. I like the colour of the eye, and also the ankle protruding from the water surface is a neat touch.

Nice work Leo! I love it actually. Must be Australia Day as every Aussie I know here are posting, but me. I got no new birds. Too busy with WIRES this weekend.

Agree with Monsieur Cadieux about removing the extra reflection. :)

Wonderful shot Leo - like the low perspective, fine detail and the reflection

cheers

Super low angle Leo, and I like the light, detail and colours. Overall sharp, lovely eye, and a good clear reflection. I agree to remove the detached part of the reflection.

[Kiran Poonacha]

Loved this, beautiful light, expo, details and the reflection adds well.. Congrats..

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the light, angle, serene mood and sharpness. Another vote for removing the detached part of the reflection.

[Leo Berzins]

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions and for taking the time to make them. Much appreciated as always.
I'll be more diligent with detached reflections in the future.:)
