Perfect!
And with a 2X teleconverter
Wow
Hi Troy, well exposed, although the base of the neck is a bit blocked in the blacks. Love the colour of the water, and as the reflection isnt that clear, I would come up from the bottom.
That's a beauty, Troy. Love the colors and fully raised crest. Terrific for 2X and 3200 ISO.
Beautiful bird, reflection, and killer background. Soft light and a nice raised crest. The bird's head is angled slightly away from us and the bill could use a bit of clean-up. Where?

Very nice one Troy, love the killer light and nice bird. I ditto Arash regarding the size, too small man!
Troy, when I saw the thumbnail for this image, I was immediately attracted by the beautiful colors! The water is a great color complement for the subject's eye, and the brown in the feathers, and the whites make the image pop. The wonderful subject is a great bonus, and adds interest, but the colors make the image for me.
I like the comp as is, and the colours are quite beautiful. Good job with a potentially tough exposure situation. I'd prefer a better head angle though.
I like the IQ, exposure, composition and complimentary water colour. A better HA would have been nice but still a beauty as presented. Well done Troy!
Great low angle and nice exposure. I love the colors
Superb capture! I'm good with all about the bird..... I'll go out "on a limb" here... but to my eye the BG is too bright and competes with the bird's eye.... and a bit more. The brilliant yellow/orange seems to come a bit too forward, compared to the wonderful details of the duck.

Thank you all!
Nice Troy . Gotta love the sweet colors and nice low angle
