    Nice Wigeon Drake John. Captured the iridescence nicely at a great, low perspective.

    Evenly lit in solid light. Water color is very pretty, I like the pastel effect vs the traditional darker blue.

    I do see some halo effects from sharpening around the bill and chest but pretty subtle.

    Hi John, Happy New Year to you as well. Nice work, the duck looks great. Love the low POV, processing looks spot on, wonderful iridescence on the green. Thank you for sharing.
