Just a crop and slight crop. Couldn't get whole body in the frame. What do you think of the crop, more or less?

Nice colours. Shooting angle is not great and head looks soft. 1/640 is not fast enough to capture this action. Composition doens't work for me either.
Lovely bird but this particular crop doesn't work for me b/c it puts the duck's head in the middle of the frame. I agree that the bird's head in spots is soft, esp the beak. Now sure how I would crop this one. Maybe someone else can chime in.
Thanks guys, that's what I wanted to know.
Comp-wise I'd crop off half the left and half the top. I agree the head looks soft but you should be able to freeze a feeding duck at 1/640s, perhaps not 100% of the time, but still should be able to...
