One from my usual perch at the local harbour...Glad I eventually managed to get this, as they have now left returning to Scandinavia

Great looking duck to get in flight William. The light angle looks good and the exposure looks spot on for this guy. Details overall look good but the head has a little blurr to it. This is one of those frames that some extra selective sharpening will help quite a bit. Well captured

Love the wing position, agree with Dave head looks a bit crunchy. it could also benefit from cloning out the specular highlights on the bill

Love the pose. Such a unique duck as well. Agree about the head.

Thanks for that, much appreciated

This one looks quite spectacular to me. Killer perfect wing position. Adding a bit of room in front might be a good option ...

with love, artie
