Canvasback

[Glenn Bartley]

Taking a break from Texas images - here's one that I captured yesterday afternoon with Jan Wagner.

We had all the elements come together for these images - nice light, great colors on the pond, no wind and a cooperative subject. After the bird swam away we both looked at each other and smiled - astonished at how well things work out sometimes.

Hope you enjoy this one.

Gorgeous image Glenn with outstanding lighting. Beautiful pose and eye contact and there are no nits for me. Congratulations on this beauty !!!

Lovely closeup Glenn. As you said iIt has about everything one would want including the reflection. If I was to ask for anything else it might be for just a touch more space on the left for the duck to swim into. That being said I'd still be excited to have this in my collection.
