    Lovely shot great colours exposure and detail. I f I would change anything I would take a n=bit off the base I think this would make the image a little more dynamic.

    Wonderfu image , love the low angle of view and the great color captured. My only suggestion would be to tone down the bill just a tad

    Great image. I agree with taking i little of the bottom or maybe including slightly more above if you have it.
    This is one bird i can never get a clean image of they are always in the cover at the side of the ponds.
    Great capture and thanks for showing.

    This is really a top notch image in every way. Love the behavior. The light is stunning. Your details are just out of this world. Lovely color palate.

    It'd be hard to make this photo any better than it is. Really nice photo, Danny. Fine job.
