Excellent head on shot, Dan. DOF is just right and the duck looks sharp and full of details.
Nice kid. Pretty stunning. Sharp with a great pose. You might opt to work on the whitish blob upper right.
My only wish is that the bird's right foot were hanging down like its left foot :).

Nice incoming flight pose with great sharpness. The leading edge of the bird's right wing looks a little cooked. And the image has a bit of a yellow cast on my monitor.

Nice flight pose captured. I also thought there was a bit of a cast and since Doug mentioned it I will second it.
Nice incoming flight image Dan...since this is landing pose I would leave some more space at bottom..
Sweet pose and excellent IQ. Love the light and the dangling foot. Love that tail.
Agree that more room below would help and that some whites need taming.
very nice incoming pose and excellent sharpness, I see the yellow cast too

Great flight shot Dan,
Cheers, Greg
Wonderful flight image, the crispness is impressive and so is the exposure.
the wing position is nice, orange on the feet and the beak makes it stand out to me
excellent capture very good eye contact and superb bc
Nice one Dan. I especially like how the top edges of the wing line up.
Great pose nice and sharp and I like the complimentary bg. I wish for just a little more of a heat turn away to show the full eye but then you would hve the head intersecting the wing so I am preferring this after all :)
Magnificent incoming pose captured.Great IQ.
Love the pose,wing position,sharpness,lights and composition.
Regards,
Satish.
