Nice image Dan! I like the preening pose and complimentary BG. Focus seem to be on the wing. I would try to sharpen the head a little more and tone down the bright white on the wing.

nice preening pose and low angle, looks like the sharpest focus was on the back as opposed to head. nice soft light

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

I like the show of the plumage but agree with Arash

[gail bisson]

Great low POV and pose. I like the stillness of the water as well. I would try another round of sharpening on the head ,

Good looking duck. Nice details and droplets on chest clystal clear. I also like the stillness of water. I would prefer this image with the ''popular'' 3:2 ratio.
