    Another sweet frame of this little duck. Nice water and head angle. Maybe a tad tight in the frame for my personal taste. These are such tough birds to expose properly, to get some detail in the blacks without blowing the whites, and get the color right. This looks pretty good to me, although others will comment. I wonder what would happen if you selected just the head without the white patch and raised the dark and mid-tones in Curves? Wish I could get one this close. Nicely done.

    Hi Michael, I echo Bill's comments. Beautiful bird, nicely shown. Thank you for sharing.
