    Another one from SoCal.
    Processed on a laptop, so hope colors are ok.

    I'll be travelling the next three weeks or so. This is likely my last thread until I return ... and then I'll peddle some more duck shots

    Canon 1D4, 700mm
    1/2500, f5.6, ISO 800
    Manual, HH

    All feedback appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Man Sid! You killed it when you came down to see us in So Cal. Another great duck flight shot. Nice flight angle and HA. Exposure and details are perfect. Very very nice Sid. Cant wait for you to get back so I can see more.

    Could ask for a better duck flight shot. I think the water drops on the birds breast add to the image.

    Hi Sid, you sure are nailing these flight shots, and I really like the raised wings in this. Great that there's always flying droplets, and I do like the colours of the water. Well captured.

    This must be what they mean by a perfect head angle! (To match a perfect pose.) And the processing looks great to me!

    You really nailed this shot. Very nice light, on both wings. I also like the water droplets. I hope to see more like on your return.
