Redhead drake

After shooting the Grebes I found this fellow on the other side of the marina. Caught him just before he did a wing flap.

Thank you for looking.

Lovely level , the eye looks fantastic
i like the details on this one and the pose, the water color adds a lot to the frame

What a lovely image. You have a terrific angle, lovely colors and details. Did you get the wing flap???

Love it! I think it needs a slight CCW rotation, and for me, there is more room on the top than is needed (except for a magazine cover!)

Very nice maybe needs a bit more room on the bottom but everyones taste is different

Excellent pose captured at nice low shooting angle, Ramon. Colours and details are very nice as well.

Really nice job on this one! Nice low angle. great detail and the water looks great!

Lovely shot, it's colors contrasting so nicely against the backdrop/water and like the way there is a gradual transition from foreground to the back = no horizon. Exposure is perfect and shows lovely fine detail in the darker areas and a lovely sheen on the plumage.
Great as is ,but I feel crop a little from the top and a little more on the right would make a great image perfect

Absolutely superb image of hand some bird.Great IQ,nice lights and composition.
Love the pose,colors,lovely details,eye and nice blue water.
