Another well exposed look at this beauty. Sharp where it needs to be , great HA and creamy BG. Love it. TFS
ps
Seeing through that bow wave...
What a beauty. Love the colors, and the blend of colors in the head. The bow wake adds. I don't find the shading of drip on the end of the bill ideal.
Lovely image. Creamy Background.
I would clone out couple of spot in the background.

John, another super Scaup!
It may be an unwelcome nit but I generally try to clone out the little white water spots with no detail. They take away enough for me personally anyway.
Congrats again, well done.
Hi John,
Very nice exposure to show the iridescence. I would have preferred a position of the scaup to be more parallel to your sensor: dof, and reducing the prominence of the black tip at the end of the bill. Water and wake bow lovely. A few dust spots to be removed.
Killer good. I hope to get there once before I die. Do losse the large white area above the head ...
