Does this Mandarine Drake wanted to tell the female , well this was my thinking when i took the image today at a local pond . Two pairs of this very beautiful duck species are living at a pond downtown .
As the location is not the best for us photogs from BG and FG POV i tried to make the best out of it , i could not get any lower or different angle to left or right to avoid the rock in the FG .
Some stuff removed in the BG .
Canon EOS 1Dx
Ef 200-400 with engaged TC so 560 mm
F 6,3 ; Iso 3200 ; 1/1250 sec
Processed with DPP 4 and PS CC , no NR at any stage in the process ; cropped for comp to pano .
If it was not for those FG rocks this would have been perfect, but I understand the situation you had. I'm digging the inclusion of the female and the flying water drops.
Pretty cool looking frame with the water drops flying. I like the drakes pose water color also. I just shot these guys for the first time a few weeks ago. Well done
