    King Eider drake, Nunavut, Canada, last July. Never easy to get close to these ducks, but at a small pond near Cambridge Bay they were a little less shy; however, this was taken from under a kwik-camo "burkha".

    Confession: the nice color in the water was provided by a large red SUV parked by the pond...

    Beautiful light and colours on this image of a nice bird Ignacio, would have preferred the light to be coming from directly behind you, although this was probably out of your control.

    Nice rich golden light and glassy water work nicely Ignacio, well composed in the frame and rather like the bill being just above the water as it is and reflection, my only thought was to perhaps see a little more detail in the blacks

    It is a tad dark for me, but terrific rich color, low angle and beautiful bird.
