My first time out in what seems a long while, I had fun with some baby mallards tonight.
It is hard to get down on their level--let me tell ya! :D

Very cute and great angle. I might give it a bit more room and do some CCW rotation.
agree with a little ccw rotation Bonnie, but this is a super image.
Details and exposure are right on IMO, very nice and worth "gettin' down" for :)
x3 on the CCW but this is nice. Great colors. Very sharp with great detail while still maintaining the soft fuzzy look.

I love it ! I´m surprised by the head detail when using a 2X converter, it use to be said the use of such converter would degrade an image.
Cute shot.
I like the low angle and the details. I agree about adding a little more room on the left.
i agree about the room Bonnie but what a sweet image!
Maybe a little more room but I just love this one, Bonnie. You did a great job of catching the details and textures.
Bonnie, this is really nice. love the details on the bird.

Wow, that is really sharp. Love the water droplets and the soft look to the face. EXP perfect too. I really like this one.

Possible corrections mentioned.........they are extremely minor and easily corrected and will only make a great shot........even better. Doesn't get any better than this!
Thanks, everyone for your comments on this image.
I am blown away myself by the IQ of the lens combo after the most recent firmware update on the MKIII.
