When I saw the thumbnail, I thought, "This may be a perfect image." I was right: killer light and SH, a beautiful crop, perfect head angle and wake, and fluffy where it needs to be fluffy. EXP perfect. Kudos!
Very nice Jim. I especially like that you were able to extract detail while not over-sharpening - hard to do on these baby birds.
Gorgeous Jim. Very proud looking duckling. Really like the low POV and soft light.
Just love this little ball of fluff. The light is killer with great details. Those water drops really work.
Excellent light quality. Subject matter is cute to begin with, but captured this soundly from a technical aspect, takes it
to another level. Love the water movement. The crop is creative.
sweet light and nice warm light, I like the water drops too
This is as good a mallard duckling image one could hope for! Everything has come together beautifully here. Only an even younger indivdual can top the cuteness factor, which is already quite strong.:S3:
Amazing shot, Jim. Love the light and details.
Thanks everyone for your kind comments.
