Canvas Back Cruising - The wet look lives on
Inspired by Gary Esman's nice canvas back drake, I went to the local bird sanctuary this AM. March is generally a good month here as the waterfowl move north, and today was no exception. The birds always tend to me more tolerant now than in the fall, so I just sat down for a bit and they ignored me.

Post: Selective sharpening, rotation, minor crop from above, cleaned up a couple of spots in the water. Touch of detail extractor Color Efex pro to help tease a bit more out of the blacks.
I was as low as you can easily get at that location ( can shoot through the fence, but the light angle would have made that a tangential shot with lots of distortion)
A bit snug in the frame, but I believe it works.
Advice and comments always appreciated.
Cheers
