    Gorgeous image with very nice low shooting angle. Love the pose with nice HA,beautiful colors,great details,water droplets on crown and wings.
    Lovely composition. The water droplets from the beak has assumed the shape of small boy touching his beak with hand...looks like animated...my imagination...just love it.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    I like the low angle, light, sharpness, calm water, BG and water coming off the bill really adds to the image. Excellent image Dan!

    Exceptionally beautiful image of one of my favorite duck species. I'm digging the water dripping from the beak.

    A very pleasing head angle, low angle and complimetary background color. The water droplets add nice drama too!
