Great wing position and tack sharp.
You have portrayed the blacks in the neck well to show off the satin texture,

Karl,

Not sure that you could have asked for better wing position. Looks like you are shooting directly parallel to the Scoter, an added bonus.

I may take off a bit off the bottom and get a longer aspect ratio, but that's a minor point.

Well done to get that full wing shot and as mentioned everything square to camera as well. Tack sharp and well exposed. It must have been nice to have the sun for that bif ss.

[Frank Schauf]

Excellent flight pose and sharp details.

interesting bird, you have captured the wing position on the bird amazingly
May like a bit of the canvas on the left to give it a more fly in position, but in wild we take what we get and make the best of it
