    Default Gadwall evening

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    I spent the last part of the day with a pair of Gadwall ducks in the Sackville Waterfowl Park. This male has been with it's mate in the same place for the past week feeding on algae. The lighting is exactly as it was- fairly harsh and golden coloured. Our air has been so clear lately that even the setting sun is harsh- can't complain I suppose.

    Comments welcome!

    Very nice image. I like the water dripping from the beak and I like the warm tones. Sharpness of the duck's head is very good as well. Only nit I can find is that I wish the water behind the duck's head were of a smoother texture without the brown lines. Small nit of a good image.
