Self Reflection

Female Wood Duck.
Seriously underexposed but I thought it had a nice mood to it for that reason.

Clever title :)
The colors you managed to render on this gal are about as good as I've seen for the hen. Really pretty.
I also enjoy the water movement.

love the colors in this image,and the ripples in the water,like the eye in the bird,and pleasant light.

Dan:

I like the head down pose, the silky water, the slight angle in the frame. In a perfect world, I would prefer not to have the green swatch on the right hand side. However, having just spent a few days bobbing around with the loons, I appreciate once again how challenging it can be to get a good pose and uniform water in the same frame!

Cheers

Looks like she is trying to see how she is looking in the water

I really like the colours in this image, Dan.
