Foggy Morning Mandarin...

[Joseph Przybyla]

A while back I posted another image of this Mandarin captured on a foggy morning at Lake Mirror in the center of Lakeland, Florida. Since then I have reprocessed the images trying to find something to do with this gloomy dark overcast weather each time a cold front moves through. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Very nice high key image.
I would try to tone down the leaves to add more "oomph" and color to them,
Nice reflection and low POV.
I really like the wind blown feathers on the back.
I would like to see the entire ripple on the RHS included even if it means centering the duck,

Very nice Joe. Nice details on the bird I like the movement on the water and the reflection. Thanks for sharing

So different Joe, cool flat reflection and smashing detail on the bird, like this a lot.
