    Default Eurasian Wigeon Drake

    One or two of these show up in my county every winter. I chased this one and ended up with this portrait. I am really getting into photographing urban ducks (metro Phoenix is great for that) between college classes.

    Ooh, I like this a lot! Some may find it tight, but I like the comp. Great warm colours, and the details are very good. Nice water movement too. My only reservation is the triple-stacked catchlights, I'd get rid of the two lower ones.

    Thanks Daniel, means quite a bit coming from a guy of your talent. Here is a repost with catchlights removed. I agree, it makes the image a lot stronger.
