I like it a bunch Krishna, well done. The icy waters add a nice texture and the walk in to the water is something different. Colors look great and not sure about some of the whites being blown but i am also not sure how to work around that on a wood duck, for example, neck and upper back whites. Terrific details on that foot!

Love the pose(looks like the foot is testing ice), SH, details, colors and BG. Whites look great on my monitor.

Beautiful Krishna I like it very much, I like it as it is..........
If you want suggestions I would check out the black cheek - is there some detail to be had?. The bill has been hit by the light - would a little luminance adjustment help? How about a tiny bit less contrast? Was the Nik filter really required?

Thank you for the comment.
Regarding the Nik Filter- It opened the shadows a little and increased the feather details I guess. I did not over process the image so I did not make any other changes.

Nice bird, image design, and pose. It is hard to get the purple cheek patch in lousy light.

Love the detail and color. Another bird would not be so interesting in the flat light. Detail on the foot is really nice. Did you use a flash? The catchlight in the solid dark part of the eye is odd......

I used Fill Flash. Forgot to add that earlier.
