    Dan,

    A different perspective on this bird, and one that I like quite a lot. You captured an image of a moment, not much more you can ask for.

    Looks like you took advantage of some nice even light and pulled the right amount of detail in the whites and shadows.

    The next time I am in Portland you are going to have to take me to your pond :) Another cool and unique pose of these beautiful ducks. The detail and exposure look great too. Well done Dan.

    Stunning pose, colors and details. Perfect eye contact, low angle and exposure control. Very well done, Dan.

    Very nice Dan, the expression is great but the chest detail, patterns and colors are excellent, Grand indeed.
