Beautiful capture Arash. Love the low flight angle, color rendition and details. The diffuse light was good to you.

Fantastic shot, weather helped with shadows but one would always prefer golden light. The bird has great detail and is very sharp TFS:cheers:

Terrific low shot with great wing and head angles. Nice sharpness and color, especially given the light conditions. The common Mallard is really a beautiful bird, too often overlooked.

I love the exposure, colors and low angle on this one. Lack of shadows is nice too, though a bit less overcast conditions would have helped make this image pop a little more. Well done!

Tack sharp Arash, and Mallards have such a variety of colours.

Fantastic exposure and sharpness. Good head angle too. Did you have to do any noise reduction?

Glad to see you posting again. Best, JR
