    I love the wing's full downward stroke, and beautiful sheen on the speculum. Looks like it has ever so slightly passed you at this point - understandable as these guys are really swift!

    Thanks Daniel, as you stated just a hair past center, sadly the frame before doesn't have the wings in the downward stroke. Hopefully in the next few weeks duck season will ramp up and I'll have more opportunities.

    Another killer pose with another amazing view of the near-wing. From where I sit the greens could be toned down a bit.

    Winner of a frame Tim! It's not easy to get the greens looking like that. I might tone down the blue of the water and move the bird slightly lower in the frame.

    This is awesome Tim!! The colors just pop off of the screen. One of your best duck IF frames IMO. Well done
