    Great looking image Dan.. The light direction shows off the head lovely. Great low POV and head angle.

    nice composition and you caught the difficult iridescence on its head, well done.

    Nice showing the iridescence of the head, as well as the feather detail. Like the wake and the low shooting angle, Dan.

    Hi Dan, great low perspective, and a good swimming angle from the Buffelhead too. I like show of the different colours, and yes, the bow wave raises this a few notches.

    I too like the iridescence and the bow wave.
    I like the BG.
    It feels a bit tight on the LHS for my taste.
    I wish he had been more parallel to the sensor to get more detail out of the black on the body,
    Gail
