I really liked the pose this Wigeon gave me on its flyout in some nice light.
I also liked the 3 dimensional feel to it.

Thanks For Looking

awesome will be a less weighted word for this image James.
i loved it a lot

[Trivedi Vatsal]

Excellent image! Loved the wings position and Background a lot...

[Stu Bowie]

Hi James, excellent flight posture with the raised wings, and certainly captured in soft light. Overall sharp, and that BG is so sweet.

Nice pose, nice light and nice BG. I like the water droplets on the belly. There is one little white area on the side that looks hot.

Another awesome image from you, love the raise head flight pose a lot, the sharpness, details and exposure are excellent too. TFS.

[Jeroen Stel]

Splendid flight-shot with wonderful colors and lovely detail!
I would personally try to clone out the hot spot on the belly but other then that i like this a lot.

greetings,

The hot spot on the belly should be an easy fix with the clone tool if it isn't recoverable during raw conversion. Other than that this is a pretty impressive image of this beautiful duck. I love the details on the wing, and what a nice background!!

[Jonathan Ashton]

Super image great pose and wonderful detail and colours, the background couldn't be better - love it!

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

I love the great soft colors and detail. Great show of the wings and that recognizable green patch.

[Bill Dix]

Sweet shot, Jim. Love the slightly elevated flight position. All has been said above; hot spot noted. BG is especially lovely.

[Kiran Poonacha]

loved it brother... Happy new year

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

Perfect....the subtle angle of the bird is great. wing position, BG, sharpness....like everything here. With wing-up position, the hot spot always is tricky to avoid with wigeons. Loved the colors.
